Greetings.

I am setting up a machine to clone and distribute onto a network. Everything works great except for one big snag: usb drives will not be recognized or mount. This is on a Redhat 4.2 system. On a Redhat 4.0 system, it works just fine.

Here is some information.

tail -f /var/log/messages, after inserting a usb drive into a port (all ports result in identical behavior):

Mar 7 12:55:31 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 2
Mar  7 12:55:32 localhost kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
Mar 7 12:55:32 localhost kernel: usb-storage: probe of 2-2:1.0 failed with error -1
Mar  7 12:55:32 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
Mar  7 12:55:32 localhost kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered.

lsmod:

I am particularly curious about the 'error -1' reported in /var/log/messages. Does anybody know what that indicates?

Any help diagnosing this problem, or even better, solving it, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Christian Leger
