I can't mount something without, at least, having kernel mode usb-storage properly insmod'ed. And what i was saying a few lines up, is that apparently usb-storage is missing from my machine - though i upgraded from FC1 to FC2 by iso images. > Have you also tried mounting using the device /dev/sda.

It says so, but it doesn't load usb-storage into kernel and then it gives up since it can't find an IRQ for the new device. > Also, try > plugging the usb device in and then: > > cat /etc/fstab > > Does it reveal that a mountpoint was created for the device > and an entry in fstab thusly written? Absolutely nothing happens. Somebody told me that this thing of memeory stick not being mounted was something known to happen with FC2. Maybe they were wrong. My point now is: i don't have usb-storage on my system - is this normal for a normal FC2 upgrade? How can i do to fix it? Brand new kernel or just compiling some new modules? As to both chances, a bit of help is needed. I never compiled a 2.6. Thanks a lot E.
