I have some data I need to get to on a harddrive that has a USB
connection. I personally formatted that drive as ext3 and put the data on
it from another linux box. Now the drive is home with me. I powered the
drive up and made the usb connection. I also said
modprobe usb-storage
I already have two SATA drives in use which are sda an sdb.
Also
1013 > lsmod | grep usb
usb_storage 74505 0
scsi_mod 135529 3 usb_storage,libata,sd_mod
1014 > lsmod | grep scsi
scsi_mod 135529 3 usb_storage,libata,sd_mod
Here's what syslog had to say when I plugged in the usb connector:
Aug 13 18:29:27 saturn kernel: usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11
Aug 13 18:29:27 saturn kernel: usb 1-5: device descriptor read/64, error -71

Aug 13 18:29:29 saturn kernel: usb 1-5: device not accepting address 14, error -71
Also, from /dev/ I ran
MAKEDEV sdc
Then when I try to run
mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc1 /mnt
all I get back is
[root@saturn dev]# mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc1 /mnt
mount: /dev/sdc1 is not a valid block device
[root@saturn dev]# lsmod
BTW,
[root@saturn dev]# ls -l /dev/sd*
