I have reported the problem in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=124139 The issue appears to be that usb-storage isn't scanning for partitions after getting a heads-up about a device being plugged in. I own plenty of card readers (and other usb-storage devices like cameras) that all worked up to FC1, but don't work in FC2 - all of them are correctly detected, the correct drivers/modules are loaded, but no partition scan takes place, so the devices cannot be mounted. e.g. SCSI subsystem initialized usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 21 Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Vendor: SanDisk Model: Cruzer Rev: 2.00 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 USB Mass Storage device found at 22 after this, the kernel should scan for partitions /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, etc. but it doesnt. This is the same whether I use a single LUN device like the Cruzer (as shown above) or a multi-LUN device like a 7-in-1 card reader. If this bug is confirmed, I'd treat it with a sense of urgency - these days, just about everyone uses USB-storage devices, and this is a definite show-stopper. I believe that Arjan has done something to make things work in his experimental kernels, but those are for RHEL, and apparently have pretty dismal desktop performance (xmms stutters, etc.) Atul -- ------------------------------------------- Atul Chitnis | achitnis@xxxxxxxxxxx Exocore Consulting | http://www.exocore.com Bangalore, India | +91 (80) 2344-0397 -------------------------------------------
