Hello, Some users of Debian-BR-CDD (one CDD based on sarge with focus on Desktop users) sent reports about usb-stick problems. I did some investigation and identified the specific case where it ocour but I don't know where the problem is. I'll explain bellow: - If I format the stick on Windows XP or Windows 2000 it cannot be mounted on 2.6.[89] kernels. But it works well using 2.4.27. All used kernels are Debian packages provided by this team; - If I format the stick using mkdosfs it works well inside of Debian and on Windows too; Looking at messages on dmesg and syslog, looks like kernel cannot identify the end of filesystem and because of it can't mount it. Maybe can be one problem on fat support but I'm not sure. Anyone have some idea where this problem is and how fix it? -- O T A V I O S A L V A D O R --------------------------------------------- E-mail: otavio@debian.org UIN: 5906116 GNU/Linux User: 239058 GPG ID: 49A5F855 Home Page: http://www.freedom.ind.br/otavio --------------------------------------------- "Microsoft gives you Windows ...
