Hello,

I've been trying to figure this problem out for a while, with no success. I'm hoping someone here could help.

Basically I am booting linux with a USB key connected to the USB port. After the system is booted, the USB key is not recognized (maybe it is, but the system just hangs when I try to mount a partition on the key or examine the key). However, if I simply remove the key from the computer and then re-insert it (after boot completes), it is then recognized properly and I can mount. For our application, however, we need the key recognized and usable on boot, without having to remove/re-insert.

I have taken a look at dmesg, but this shows little. Is there a simple way to solve this? I would think it boils down to a forced (emulated) disconnect/reconnect. Any help would be appreciated. Some of my specs are below. Thank you.
Mark
