NICE, i didn't realize it would show up as a SCSI device. I looked through the logs and found that it looks it recognized it as the following: Mar 17 14:23:07 coredump kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.7-2, assigned address 6 Mar 17 14:23:07 coredump kernel: WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured Mar 17 14:23:07 coredump kernel: USB Mass Storage device found at 6 Mar 17 14:23:10 coredump modprobe: Note: /etc/modules.conf.local is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.21-192-default/modules.dep Mar 17 14:23:10 coredump last message repeated 7 times And i tested by mounting to /mnt and it worked like a charm. I'm still shaky in my understanding of kernel modules and modules.conf, can anyone tell me if i should be worried about that last log entry? Thanks a bunch for all your suggestions!
