Hi, all
I have a USB external disk, which works fine under windows as well as
Ubuntu Linux. When I plug it to my debian box (Debian Testing,
uptodate, self-made 2.6.13), it does not create the /dev file and I
cannot mount it, although it does recognize the virtual SCSI device
according to the dmesg. Here is the segment of syslog:
scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
usb-storage: device found at 3
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
Vendor: HITACHI_ Model: DK23EA-30 Rev: 00K4
Type:
Direct-Access
ANSI SCSI revision: 00
usb-storage: device scan complete
I also acquired the syslog from Ubuntu system, which created the /dev file accurately:
scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
usb-storage: device found at 3
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning

Attached scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
I suspect that it is the problem of udev or hotplug. Their daemon
processes are all there and I am using the original configuration files
that come with apt-get/aptitude. Can anybody give me some hints about
possible cause of the problem?
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Eddie
