Okay. I've recompiled the kernel litterally DOZENS of times... This is
insane!
I can to get my USB Zip drive to work no matter what I do. I've got hotplug,
usbutils, I've got usb-mass storage, scsi (and scsi ide emulation)
I should mention I've tried on the 2.6.0 and 2.4.22 kerels. I've tried both
vfat, msdos and hfs filesystems.
"/dev/scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0: I/O error: dev 00:00, sector 0"
fdisk /dev/sda says it can't open it. Sometimes when I put a disk into the
zip drive it makes loud disk spinning noises repeatedly, over and over and
over... (this is only supposed to happen once) ive researched on google and all
that and i really am at a loss.
Okay.. I do have OHCI (and UHCI)
heres part of my .config
Code:
CONFIG_USB=y
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y
CONFIG_USB_UHCI_ALT=y
CONFIG_USB_OHCI=y
CONFIG_USB_STORAGE=m
CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=y
CONFIG_USB_HID=y
CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL=m
Like I said before, everything that is a module, has at one point or another
also been tried as an in-kernel.
I know for a fact that USB works because my (this)keyboard, mouse and
printer (which all work) are USB.
And heres my SCSI
Code:
CONFIG_SCSI=m
CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG_QUEUES=y
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y
CONFIG_SCSI_MESH=m
CONFIG_SCSI_MESH_SYNC_RATE=5
CONFIG_SCSI_MESH_RESET_DELAY_MS=4000
and all of these have been tried as in-kernel and module.
note too that MESH is low-level driver SCSI for my PPC.
I also have IDE SCSI emulation as M and at other times in-kernel as wel...
Ok here are some more error messages I found.. I'm still hunting for more in
my logs
Code:
usb-storage: Bad target number (4/0)
usb-storage: *** thread sleeping.
usb-storage: queuecommand() called
usb-storage: *** thread awakened.
usb-storage: Bad target number (5/0)
usb-storage: *** thread sleeping.
usb-storage: queuecommand() called
usb-storage: *** thread awakened.
usb-storage: Bad target number (6/0)
usb-storage: *** thread sleeping.
usb-storage: queuecommand() called
These repeat themselves forever (a while at least).
here are some errors from /var/log/kernel/current
Code:
Dec 20 01:17:52 [kernel] scsi2: ERROR on channel 0, id 0, lun 0, CDB: 0x28
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 08 00

Dec 20 02:06:13 [kernel
and that actually goes on forever until i disconnect the drive and/or unload
the modules.... At one point I had a 9MB log file/directory....
and just for reference this is mounts output:
Code:
# mount /dev/sda /mnt/usbzip -t hfs
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
or too many mounted file systems
or plain
Code:
#fdisk /dev/sda
Unable to read /dev/sda
And I want to also note that during all of thise the light on the zip drive
does blink. And often it makes spinning noises ad infinutm.
I also want to note I tried the patch for
/usr/src/linux/drivers/usb/storage/transport.c
I also tried commenting out that section of code.
Anyway... Thanks for any help you can give...... I'll keep digging on
google, forums and other lists too....
If anyone at all can help me with this I'd soooo appreciate it.... I just am
running out of things to try... This is insane...,.
