I ran into a timing problem, it needs some time until the usb storage is available to the system. The command $h --cdrom | grep "Device File:"|sed -e"s@(.*)@@" | cut -f2 -d: is executed, before the usb drive scan is complete. Therefore only /dev/hda is used, insted of /dev/sr0, too. I attached a patch, which first waits 5 seconds for /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb-storage , I' m not sure how long it can take until the directory is available. If the directory exists, I wait up to 15s for 'usb-storage: device scan complete' in the kernel dmesg. I don' t know if there is a better way to check for it. We have to wait until the scsi_scan_host has finished. Maybe the patch should be applied to the function probeUSB. My HP system needs 5 seconds to finish the scan. With my fix the Live image loads well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
