Peter,

Did you ever get an answer?  Were you able to get this working?

I have the same device, although it's marketed differently (claiming
Linux 2.4.x compatibility!) as a "PowerColor MD100 128MB Portable
Storage/Music DISK USB MP3 Player":

But, it has the same USB device/product ID's as yours (0x8341/0x2000).

Furthermore, I have the exact same problem.  I've tried it on 5
different Linux Boxes, ranging from SuSE 7.3 to 8.1 and RedHat 7.2 to
7.3.  The kernels range from 2.4.9 to 2.4.20; all have USB properly
installed and working for other devices, including other pen drives.

The SuSE based machines hang tight (need to power cycle) about a minute
after installation of the device.  On the RedHat machines, they see the
device, but any attempt to read the device (i.e. "fdisk -l", "dd
if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null", "mount /dev/sda ...") locks up the process
and either the usb-storage or the sd_mod driver (I don't know which).

Peter's information, at:

...was much more in-depth, but I'll add:
