Hi, I have a hp compaq nx7010 notebook and am keen on using a usb.2.0 128mb astone flashdrive with a linux system based on a 2.4.21 kernel.
I have spent a considerable amount of time learning about why the usb drive doesnt work. I have done things like: add line to /etc/modules.conf scsi-hostadapter usb-storage added a modprobe usb_storage to /etc/hotplug/usb/?helper script(forget the name) I believe it just comes down to the fact that in my case I dont have a driver or script picking up the device. Is there something I can use or test? rather than going to a 2.6 kernel I do get the correct stuff from hotplug on a cold boot, ie excerpt from dmesg: SCSI0: SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Starting timer : 0 0 Vendor : 128MB Model : USB2.0 Flashdrive Rev 2.00 Type : Direct Access ANSI SCSI revision : 02 Starting timer : 0 0 WARNING : USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured USB Mass Storage device found at 2 hub.c new USB device 00:1d.2-2 assigned address 2 usb.c USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x49f/0x86) is not claimed by any active driver. directory /proc/scsi/usb_storage-0 exists but is empty Appreciate any assistance ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
