booting from a usb mass storage zip drive
I need some extra eyes and advice for this problem I'm having. I've got
a usb 250 zip drive that I've installed debian on. I've been using an
initrd ramdisk to boot from that uses kernel 2.4.20. The boot process
goes fine. The problem is, there are 2 strange processes that continue
after boot. One of them is writing to all the log files filling up the
disk.
Booting into another partition (on an ide drive) I can mount this drive
and none of these problems occur. Does anyone know how to fix this or
what that process is looking/waiting for?
