Right. I guess the usb directory just spontaneously appears when you have the right usb module loaded. I'd say that your kernel does not have usbdevfs support compiled into it. usbdevfs is by no means required for using usb storage devices. It's only there to help userland programs properly load usb drivers on the fly, so don't worry further about this. Looking back at your posts, I see that the OS properly sees devices when you plug them in, and even recognizes the device as a USB Mass Storage device. Somehow, though, it's not getting a device node entry in /dev. After you plug in the device, does /proc/partitions reveal anything (like new entries)? Does your usb device work on other linux machines?
