Hello,
I recently upgraded to kernel 2.6.22.1-41.fc7.I earlier had
the kernel that comes along with Fedora 7 base system.My USB drive is
not showing up on the desktop nor in the directory /media.But it is
been shown as /dev/sdb1 on using fdisk - l.I need to mount it
explicitly using mount command and use it only through the command
prompt.The USB drive if connected before the system is booted shows up
on the desktop and also in /media.I am also facing the same problem
with CD's and DVD's which show up on the desktop only if i insert them
before the fedora 7 boots.What can be the problem?This problem does
not occur with the previous kernel that came with the F7 box.
You should have got by update a new "udev" package. If you have not
got all the updates then wait until you do. Then your USB system will
work with that kernel :-)
