Re: Q: USB-Stick at Workstation? (plus considerations: media station)
When you insert the USB stick in the worksation, your system must detect
it. Check in the /var/log/message if there are any sign of detection. If
there are no such sign, it mean the USB hardware of your worksation is
not detected by the kernel. In this case you can try to use another USB
driver usb-ohci.o or usb-uhci.o I am not sure about this name.
