Hi,
I installed libusb, then I rebuilt my kernel with USB and SCSI in it,
and not in module anymore. But a thing is very curieus and I'm worry:
before configuring udev, mknod or hotplug, at least the kernel has to
detect the disk. It doesn't.
How do you know that the kernel is not detecting your disk? I've seen
nothing that you have posted that indicates your kernel is not detecting
it. What is the output of
'cat /proc/bus/usb/devices'
This command will tell you what usb devices, including the controllers,
that the kernel sees. Also if you run 'dmesg' you should be able to find
it there.
I think that the only things you need for your kernel, either as modules
or compiled directly in the kernel are usb-storage, usb-ohci,
usb-ehci--there's another one but I can't remember its name. The kernel
help when your making your .config will tell you what each is for.
As far as you disk being supported in linux, there are a number of sites
that detail supported hardware.
