Hello,
I have a 30GB USB HDD that I use to store data and
software I dont use so often so that I can free up my internal HDD.
I had managed to install RedHat 8.0 on my Sony VAIO
GRZ660 with the updated 2.19 kernel instead of the default kernel that comes
with RH8. The USB HDD was working quite fine though a lot of other stuff like
acpi, firewire and the Memory Stick were not working, but that wasnt a big
problem for me then.
I got a copy of Fedore C1 and since acpi was said
to be working in this version, I decided to upgrade. However, now I have acpi,
firewire and the sony memory stick working but I simply cannot get the system to
see the USB HDD. It shows up in /proc/bus/usb/devices but it is not assigned a
device /dev/sdb which I used to get before in RH8. Where could the problem
be?
Regards,
Andrew
