I have a hard drive in an external case connected to my computer via a
USB port. It has three ext3 partitions and one VFAT partition. Under
RH9, the partitions of this drive showed up as SCSI devices. When I
upgraded to FC1, the device can no longer be seen. I'd like some help
to determine how to make it accessible again. Here is what I have at
this point:
I think that I should have a /proc/bus/usb/devices directory. I have
/proc/bus, but no usb. My /proc/scsi/scsi file contains the line:
"Attached devices: none".
I executed "cd /usr/src/linux;make xconfig". The following settings are
set to Yes except that those followed by (m) are set to Module:
SCSI support
SCSI Support
SCSI disk support
Enable extra checks in new queueing code
Probe all LUNs on each SCSI device
Verbos SCSI error reporting
File systems
Kernel automounter version 4 support
Ext3 journaling file system
DOS FAT fs support
MSDOS fs support (m)
VFAT (Windows 95) fs support (m)
Virtual memory file system support
/proc file system support
Second extended fs support
USB support
Support for USB
Preliminary USB device filesystem
USB Mass Storage support
USB Mass Storage verbose debug
Of course, I have more settings than these, but I think that these are
what are applicable.
