I used to format my keydrives like this. Best thing is, it worked! But only under kernel v3.4. I guess it regressed somewhere. Which implies you guys are in for a treat, because I'm bisecting another regression with the uhci controller. It regressed between v3.6 and v3.7. This is an unrelated issue though. I will report both bugs (including 'results') to the bugzilla. Thanks a ton! >> Furthermore: >> >> mount: /dev/sg0 is not a block device >> mount: /dev/sg1 is not a block device >> mount: /dev/sg2 is not a block device >> mount: /dev/sg3 is not a block device > > Mounting /dev/sg* will never work - these are character devices used > by programs which send SCSI commands directly. Thanks for the background info. I will re-disable them in my config. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
