The info below works with Lacie's Mobile Drive 20 GB.

Check if "/usr/src/linux/drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h" (search
for the file if not found) contains the code:

    UNUSUAL_DEV(  0x05e3, 0x0702, 0x0000, 0xffff,
                "EagleTec",
                "External Hard Disk",
                US_SC_SCSI, US_PR_BULK, NULL,
                US_FL_FIX_INQUIRY ),
 
If yes, do this:

    #if 0
    UNUSUAL_DEV(  0x05e3, 0x0702, 0x0000, 0xffff,
                "EagleTec",
                "External Hard Disk",
                US_SC_SCSI, US_PR_BULK, NULL,
                US_FL_FIX_INQUIRY ),
    #endif

Then "make modules" for the kernel. Compilation ends with error
but the "usb-storage.o" which you need has been compiled ok.
Copy that object file under "/lib/modules/" to
"kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o". Maybe you should reboot
after all that.

If you plug-in the mobile drive while Linux is running, then
you may have to plug, unplug, plug, unplug, plug before anything
works.

The drive probably goes to "/dev/sda1" or so. Plug, mount, unplug,
plug, mount, unplug, plug etc.
