Hi all, I got a USB-HDD, but it doesn't looked like connect and cannot mount it just after PC boot. But insert and remove a usb cable from PC, it connect (with hotplug?) Is there any good how-to's for getting a usb-HDD to auto connect when It is booted the computer? lsmod is following: [lsmod of just after boot] Module Size Used by Not tainted parport_pc 19076 1 (autoclean) lp 9028 0 (autoclean) parport 37088 1 (autoclean) [parport_pc lp] autofs 13364 0 (autoclean) (unused) e1000 71712 1 floppy 58160 0 (autoclean) microcode 4724 0 (autoclean) keybdev 2976 0 (unused) mousedev 5524 0 (unused) hid 22212 0 (unused) input 5888 0 [keybdev mousedev hid] ehci-hcd 20104 0 (unused) usb-uhci 26412 0 (unused) usbcore 79392 1 [hid ehci-hcd usb-uhci] ext3 91592 9 jbd 52336 9 [ext3] [lsmod of insert and remove a usb cable] Module Size Used by Not tainted sd_mod 13776 2 (autoclean) usb-storage 74624 1 scsi_mod 108968 2 [sd_mod usb-storage] parport_pc 19076 1 (autoclean) lp 9028 0 (autoclean) parport 37088 1 (autoclean) [parport_pc lp] autofs 13364 0 (autoclean) (unused) e1000 71712 1 floppy 58160 0 (autoclean) microcode 4724 0 (autoclean) keybdev 2976 0 (unused) mousedev 5524 0 (unused) hid 22212 0 (unused) input 5888 0 [keybdev mousedev hid] ehci-hcd 20104 0 (unused) usb-uhci 26412 0 (unused) usbcore 79392 1 [usb-storage hid ehci-hcd usb-uhci] ext3 91592 10 jbd 52336 10 [ext3] Enviroment is following: [Enviroment] - Computer : FM V ESPRIMO C5200 (Fujitsu) - USB-HDD : I-O DATA USB-HDD - OS : CentOS version.3 If need to other information about problem solving, I will post. -- Regards Naoaki Uryu
