Hi all,

Not sure if this is the correct way to solve the problem, but I had some trouble getting USB drives to work and tracked it down to the usb-storage module not getting loaded. I edited my /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.usb file to add usb-storage to the list of modules loaded on startup. Then when I plug in my USB drive it is mounted fine.

Could the LTSP maintainers please either update the rc.usb file, or if there is a better way to fix the problem, then whatever is sensible.

I'm including my rc.usb for reference.

Cheers,
Patrick

        insmod usbmouse

        echo "WARNING: USB subsystem not found, skipping"
