(i.e. latest, that you've updated - 2.4.22-1.2188.nptl) Same problem reported: http://www.learninglinux.com/postp672.html This is a fairly good thread to follow: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg21904.html And from this: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg21454.html We get that Error 71 is EPROTO, which indicates a low level fault from the disk itself If you think this is a bug and it works fine on other machines (say running Mac OS X), I suggest you Bugzilla this, but not without relevant information stated http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#ts1.
