One very old trick that is rarely mentioned is to hook up everything then install. On hearing of the problems adding a Iomega parallel to the system I just did the install with the drive attached and never had a problem other than the COD but thats not a suse problem. Maybe you need to try to boot with the rescue disk and see what it finds. CWSIV On Sun, 2004-03-21 at 03:18, Sid Boyce wrote:

Can anyone please, pretty please, provide the answer on how to get the USB 2.0 flash disk to work on Suse Pro V9.0?
Not to be too obvious Basil, but you are sure your UPS ports are 2.0 capable??? Lots of older machines arent, and then you are relying on the device to support 1.1 in addition, (which is sort of hit or miss I've found).
USB 2.0 is backward compatible with 1.1. My ports are 1.1 but 2.0 will work on them, albeit at the 1.1 speed.
If this was not the case then my flash disk would not work under Windows either but it does. So the big pain in the ass is Linux/Suse.
Cheers.
I've not been following this thread so this may already have been mentioned. Flash drives are mounted as scsi drives /dev/sdax, some guys have said they can only get them to work if they boot up with them attached, which I guess may have already been tried.
