Re: usb stick, can't mount

Could this be something that occurred in a very recent change? I recently (two weeks ago) purchased a Memorex 1 GB TravelDrive and transferred some files to it under WinXP, and had been using it on the same system (dual booting) with FC6 x86_64 at home. About a week ago, it suddenly stopped working properly in FC6; while watching with the Nautilus "Computer" window open, the drive gets mounted and unmounted immediately, but there are no error messages, nothing unusual in dmesg or /var/log/messages. Initially I waved it off as some crashed driver, but after multiple reboots over the last week, without any success in FC6 I began to suspect there was something wrong with the drive. However, it continues to work in WinXP AND it works on a FC5 x86 machine I have at work.

I'll try to get a copy of the dmesg output and anything related from /var/log/messages later on today.

Greetings all;

I just mounted, as a vfat filesystem, a 64meg usb key/stick, wrote one file
to it on a debian/kubuntu 6.06 LTS system, unmounted it and and brought it in
here and plugged it into the FC6 box, on a usb1.1 hub also, but I cannot mount it.

usb_storage is loaded according to lsmod.  Here is the stanza from the log when I plug it in:

May 10 13:24:42 coyote kernel: scsi2 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

And of course sg4 is assumed to be the loader robot for the 5th robotic scsi
tape drive the last I knew.

Shouldn't it be available as /dev/sda1?  It always has been before, quite a few times.

Kernel is 2.6.21.1-cfs-v10
