Hello all,

(insert: sorry for the repost - the previous subject was
not correct)

Im trying to get a USB hard drive I bought to work in linux.
Im running kernel 2.4.2 #1 SMP on an Intel PII 400mhz I have
all the scsi/usb options compiled in as documented variously
around the linux-usb site.

The usb drive is manufactured by mem-up (http://www.memup.com)
and is a 30gb. It looks simply to be an ide hard disk inside
some sort of casing with an ide -> usb adaptor of some sort
(though I havent opened it up yet)

I get the feeling its the device that's not recognised by
the mass storage driver.

Ive seen quite a bit of mention around the web of similar problems
with different products. But none with this exact model.

Ideas?

Below is all the info I could gather:

/var/log/messages contains the following:
Mar  3 23:54:56 blitzkrieg kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 5
Mar  3 23:54:56 blitzkrieg kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2,
assigned device number 6
Mar  3 23:54:56 blitzkrieg kernel: Product: USB to IDE Adapter
Mar  3 23:54:56 blitzkrieg kernel: SerialNumber:
ecb8b6c0-b487-11d4-97c0-b083fb77664c
Mar  3 23:54:56 blitzkrieg kernel: usb.c: USB device 6 (vend/prod
0x5ab/0x200) is not claimed by any active driver.

and a lot of other debug info which doesnt seem to report anything
unusual.

I'd appreciate any help I can get with trying to get this device to
work.

If its a case of the device not being support
