I have a USB hard drive that I'm trying to use with Linux. It does mount, but it takes 30 seconds! When I type: % ls /media/usbdrive /var/log/messages says: Nov 13 00:05:34 laptop kernel: ReiserFS: sda1: found reiserfs format "3.6" with standard journal Nov 13 00:06:05 laptop kernel: ReiserFS: sda1: using ordered data mode Nov 13 00:06:05 laptop kernel: ReiserFS: sda1: journal params: device sda1, size 8192, journal first block 18, max trans len 1024, max batch 900, max commit age 30, max trans age 30 Nov 13 00:06:05 laptop kernel: ReiserFS: sda1: checking transaction log (sda1) Nov 13 00:06:05 laptop kernel: ReiserFS: sda1: Using r5 hash to sort names Nov 13 00:06:05 laptop udevd[2311]: get_netlink_msg: no ACTION in payload found, skip event 'mount' Nov 13 00:06:08 laptop udevd[2311]: get_netlink_msg: no ACTION in payload found, skip event 'umount'
and then the drive is unmounted! I don't always have this drive plugged in, so I don't want a permanent automount in /etc/fstab, but having to wait 30 seconds for an "ls" is horrible. Any idea of what's wrong? I'm running SuSE linux 10.0 on a Pentium M.
