Something in the USB storage code, the FAT code or the SCSI code changed
between 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 to break my USB pendrive. Under 2.6.0 I had no problems
mounting and accessing the drive, but after a move to 2.6.1, this is what appears
in dmesg:
request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- block-major-2-0. error = 256

I'm not sure what other information to provide on this issue, but I'm certain
that it worked under 2.6.0 - I'm going to check that ASAP. The drive works under
WinXP, so the unit itself is OK.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do next?
TIA
Brad

Confirmed - the USB pendrive works perfectly fine without any errors in both Linux
2.6.0 and Windows XP.
Where should I look first for changes between .0 and .1, to troubleshoot this?

ChangeLog / bk log are good places
Or you could just do a diff between the two drivers/usb/ directories

Please enable CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DEBUG and send the kernel debug log to
the linux-usb-devel mailing list. The people there should be able to
help you out.
Good luck,
