sda disapering
Hi!
i'm using sid, kernel image 2.6.10:
# uname -a
Linux quetzalcoatl 2.6.10-1-686-smp #1 SMP Tue Jan 18
03:03:11 EST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
#uptime
17:08:44 up 160 days, 23:47, 1 user, load average:
0.27, 1.02, 1.77
My usb memory was working flawlessly (all 160 days),
until today.
Then i realize it is no the memory, anything i insert
in usb (flash memory, mouse, hard drive, etc.). So,
lets take the memory for example:
When i inser it:
#dmesg

address 46

but, when i disconect it (umounting first):
#ls -alh /dev/sda*

sda and sda1 are gone!!
i have to recreate them (whit mknod) each time i
disconect someting (flash memory, external hd, etc.)
Any ideas why is happening this? kernel bug? module
bug? too much time running? hardware failing (intel
865g)?
Any ideas how to fix this? reboot? (like windogs?),
remove the module and reload it? update kernel? buy a
new motherboard?
Thanks in advance.
