I have a Maxtor external usb harddrive I use to backup files, etc. When I copy a directory with subdirectories, it gets to 24 % then stalls according to Progress Dialog - KDE. I have had this problem since 2.4.10 kernel. Drive access light is always on. Only way to stop things is to unplug the usb cable. If I try to unmount, it says device busy. If I reboot, it takes forever unless I unmount drive which I can't without unplugging the cable. In the present case, it has transfered 159 MB of 632 MB. Also have problems deleting file from this drive. Comes up and says cannot delete the file!
fstab has /dev/sda1 /windows/D vfat noauto,user 0 2 and usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults,noauto, 0 0 Drive has no operating system, but is formated as fat32. Any Ideas on this? I have posted this on the SuSE Linux user mail list but have gotten no answer.
