Is anyone else using an external USB-2.0 Hard Drive? If so, perhaps you can help me figure out what's up with mine. If I do a reboot with the drive powered up, I get a kernel panic when it gets to mounting it. I can see the USB-2.0 support loaded, but I don't think the drive is getting recognized before the system tries to mount it. I have to power it off, comment out the mount entry in fstab, reboot, power up the drive (it's then recognized and registered via USB drivers) and then uncomment out the mount entry in fstab and mount it manually.
Here are the mount entrys in fstab: /dev/sda5 / ext3 defaults 1 1 #/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 auto,owner,ro 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy msdos noauto,owner 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 /dev/sda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbhd ext3 defaults 1 3 The /boot partition mount is commented out as I ran out of room for up2date to install new kernels, so I created a /boot folder in / and referenced grub there for all boots and kernels and abandoned the /boot partition. Any ideas on the USB Hard Drive would be appreciated - thanks. ________________________ Greg Kelley, IT Director Britannic Aviation, US and UK US Office: Pease Int'l Tradeport 68 New Hampshire Ave. Portsmouth, NH 03801 603.766.3005 http://www.britannicaviation.com AOPA, EAA, SSA CFII SEL, MEL; Comm Glider ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users
