I was using the results of your good "Googeling" research when I ran across this: " Try a different cable. If the UHCI controller can operate the device, but the EHCI controller cannot, you either have a broken kernel build (unlikely) or the electrical connection cannot maintain the 480 megabit performance. " Here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2004/12/msg00139.html Actually, extension cables are not permitted in the USB-2 standard. Also, when the drive is successfully mounted what is in messages and the output of mount? Also, can you successfully unmount the drive and then re-mount it by hand (perhaps not calling for the missing ISO file)? Have Fun! Tod
