Jumpdrive Not A Block Device?
I cannot access my Jumpdrive from a Etch box with a 2.6.15 kernel.
I have successfully used this Lexar 256 MB Jumpdrive Pro (usb 2.0) with
Sarge box and a 2.6.11 kernel compiled from source.
With Sarge it is recognized as SCSI device sda and located at
/dev/sda1. It can be mounted and has a vfat file system.
With Etch it is recognized as SCSI device sdb and located at /dev/sg1.
It cannot be mounted, mount fails with a message that /dev/sg1 is not a
block device.
What I really wanted to do was install Damm Small Linux on this drive.
cdrecord -scanbus recognized it as SCSIbus 4: 4,0,0 and I hoped I could
just overwrite the existing vfat file system with the dsl-3.0.1.iso.
This did not work. cdrecord stopped with the messages:
Device seems to be: Generic CCS Disk
Sorry, no CD/DVD-drive found on this target.
I would appreciate any suggestions as to how to solve this problem.
