Version: 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #1: Tue Mar 30 10:50
Platforms: Dell Dimension USB 1.1 system
(Same problem seen on other versions/platforms.)
Device: Sony Microvault 128MB
For some reason, with a USB 1.1 memory stick (with a FAT16 FS)
in a USB 1.1 computer, if I boot the system with the memory stick
inserted, I can mount it. But, if I remove it, I can't re-insert
it and remount it. If I insert after rebooting, I can't mount it.
Others have reported similar problems on other platforms.
Is this a known problem or operator error? (Is there a need
to configure something somewhere?)
(Obviously I can paste kernel config and boot info etc., but,
I only plan to waste your time if the opinion is that USB 1.1
mass storage devices work fine.)
