Yes

Should I just send you the output from /proc/partitions of both kernel
versions?

Thanks for the hints; I tried disabling both the FEI partiiton and
(finally) the UB device.  It appears that the problem may not have been
related to either of those variable.

I just happened to try plugging in the camera directly, rather than via
a USB cable - and it worked without issue.  At the moment I am in the
process of re-enabling both options to confirm that my issue is a bad
USB cable.

I'll (hopefully) be able to send you an email tomorrow with a success
report with each and then both of those options re-enabled.

Once again, thanks for your time.

Cheers,
Anand
