Sounds like things are getting further, then. What happens if you try
mounting /dev/sda1 somewhere?
Yes, Its getting further... I can now mount /dev/sda1 to /mnt/flash (or
wathever) when I have the ACPI=off.
I tryed to make the ACPI=noirq. Then the I rebooted, and the computer
hang, right after the graphical boot said: setting hostname (or
something.. I have norwegian text on it) Also the my usb mouse dident
work during this startup (it normaly does work).
I then had to edit the kernel parameter from grub to make it boot.
I also has a Apacer handy steno 1.1 256mb disk, i was also able to make
this work with the ACPI=off. The only thing here is that the Apacer
stick is /dev/sda, even if only this stick is in the usb port.
Why does 1 of them use /dev/sda, when the other comes in as /dev/sda1 ?
I've added both of them to /etc/fstab as:
/dev/sda /mnt/flash vfat noauto,user,rw 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/flash2 vfat noauto,user,rw 0 0
Is this the correct way to do it? and if I set it to auto instead of
noauto, will it then automaticly mount when I insert it?
Also, how can I disable the graphical boot to see wats going on when the
hangs during the boot?
James was also earlyer talking about maby making a bugzilla entry about
this.. Is this problem something to add to bugzilla, and if so.. how?
Many thanx for all the good help James!!
