It kind of sucks that we won't see the mass storage and associated
devices on Linux based SRSS 3.x+, I was hoping that this version did just
that. So the big question becomes when is 2.6 based SRSS software coming
out.

external hdd on a Solaris based SR server but not on a Linux one.
Correct me if I am wrong on this. He wasn't extremely impressed.
USB support with Linux is due to arrive with SRSS 3.1 I believe.
It will match what you can currently do with Solaris.
SRSS 3.1 adds libusb support on Linux.
SRSS 3.1 does not include USB Mass Storage support on Linux. Mass
Storage won't work until SRSS runs on 2.6 kernels, the 2.4 architecure
in this area is just too weak.
