Dave it looks like to me got hardware starting to fail try a live cd on the box if you can
Humm,
OK, I'll give the live CD a go in the morning. I suspect it is something suse related, because with the drive in question, if I install it as a normal harddrive in my laptop, it works great. Also, I swapped drives in my Laptop to updated the Archlinux install. I attached the same usb drive to the Arch Linux box and it did just fine, no errors and no disconnects, The Arch kernel is:
26-2.6.31.6-1
Google that drive controller chip set Dave. This is not failing hardware. Its a known problem, and I believe I posted a link to a bugzilla work around in a prior email -- If stupidity got us into this mess, then why can't it get us out? - Will Rogers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
