Hello, I'm having difficulties mounting a USB pen drive on Mandrake 9.1 (which ships with a patched kernel 2.4.20 with devfs). The kernel properly detects the device, usb-storage is loaded, but no device node is created and I have no idea why. I tried to modprobe sd_mod, without success. the device works properly on windows 2000 and even Mandrake 8.0 (patch kernel 2.4.3, no devfs). I'm using on this machine a usb mouse and usb scanner without any problem.
upon connecting the device i get this in /var/log/messages: Mar 20 10:28:46 papillon kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-2, assigned address 2 Mar 20 10:28:46 papillon kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x90a/0x1540) is not claimed by any active driver.

I would expect a /dev/host1/.. appear with the USB device. The device is mounted on /dev/sda (or sda1 i don't remember precisely) on the mandrake 8.0. Also, "fdisk -l" does not list the device. and /proc/scsi/scsi when the device is plugged shows: [EMAIL PROTECTED] emmanuel]$ cat /proc/scsi/scsi Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: PIONEER Model: DVD-ROM DVD-106 Rev: 1.22 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 01 Lun: 00 Vendor: HL-DT-ST Model: CD-RW GCE-8320B Rev: 1.04 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: Model: Rev: Type: <NULL> ANSI SCSI revision: ffffffff I'm using ide-scsi on my DVD reader and CD burner but removing it does not help. The device does not require any special driver on windows 2000, and since it works on kernel 2.4.3mdk I assume it's not a unusual_devs.h issues (unless it's a regression in the kernel?). Does anybody have any idea?
