The installer is not seeing the USB memory, and on the package selection
usb-storage-modules-2.6.18-6-ixp4xx-di: USB storage support
is not shown.
All its finding is the Flash and RAM in the barefoot
slug.
I can plug the USB 8 GB memory into this machine and all
files are readable.
When I initially loaded the beast last year , as far as
I remember, there were no problems. It loaded and ran.
