i rebooted and loaded M$-XP and it works fine, so the hardware and

i don't understand why the linux scsi-mod doesn't log what dev it
activates in /var/log/messages , like the kernel does on bootup in
/var/log/dmesg .

Thomas

insmod usb-storage
insmod sd_mod

look at the /var/log/messages, you ought to see something like this:

Feb 4 15:53:40 valbella kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.0-1, assigned address 3
Feb 4 15:53:44 valbella /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup usb-storage for USB product e79/1/1
Feb 4 15:53:47 valbella automount[10827]: attempting to mount entry /misc/jukebox
Feb 4 15:53:47 valbella kernel: Attached scsi disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Feb 4 15:53:47 valbella kernel: SCSI device sda: 39070081 512-byte hdwr sectors (20004 MB)
Feb 4 15:53:47 valbella kernel: sda: sda1

the last line tells you the SCSI dev: /dev/sda1
