Ok, I have eliminated power as a possibility by routing the secondary USB connector for the drive to a powered USB hub. No difference, the drive still spins up, and the system still can not read the partition table (the drive is known to have a good EXT3 partition on it). Here are the specifics on the USB card I am using from dmesg: PCI: Enabling device 0000:06:00.0 (0000 -> 0002) ohci_hcd 0000:06:00.0: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (#2) ohci_hcd 0000:06:00.0: irq 11, pci mem e0858000 ohci_hcd 0000:06:00.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2 hub 2-0:1.0: USB hub found hub 2-0:1.0: 2 ports detected PCI: Enabling device 0000:06:00.3 (0000 -> 0002) ehci_hcd 0000:06:00.3: ALi Corporation USB 2.0 Controller (#2) ehci_hcd 0000:06:00.3: irq 11, pci mem e087e000 ehci_hcd 0000:06:00.3: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 3 ehci_hcd 0000:06:00.3: USB 2.0 enabled, EHCI 1.00, driver 2004-May-10 hub 3-0:1.0: USB hub found hub 3-0:1.0: 6 ports detected The output from lspci -vv: 06:00.0 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subsystem: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- SERR- TAbort- SERR- return code = 0x70000 end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 0 Buffer I/O error on device sda, logical block 0 SCSI error : <1 0 0 0> return code = 0x70000 end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 0 Buffer I/O error on device sda, logical block 0 unable to read partition table Attached scsi disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 USB Mass Storage device found at 2 HELP!!!!! -- Ron Gage - Pontiac, Michigan (MCP, LPIC1, A+, Net+) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
