scsi6 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb-storage: device found at 7
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
...

Hi,
try to get a look at /dev/sda1.
In my /etc/fstab :
Code:
/dev/sda1       /mnt/usb        vfat    noauto,rw,sync,user     0 0


This is an example, and i think this is not the best options.

Something missing there

Code:
usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
scsi2 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
  Vendor:           Model: USB DRIVE         Rev: 1.13
  Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 00

sdb: Write Protect is off
sdb: Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00

Do you have SCSI disk support (BLK_DEV_SD) built in your kernel or as a module?

yup that fixed it, now i can see it in /dev, on a side note whenever i use dmesg most of my output is

Code:

evbug.c: Event. Dev: isa0060/serio0/input0, Type: 0, Code: 0, Value: 0

and

evbug.c: Event. Dev: synaptics-pt/serio0/input0, Type: 2, Code: 0, Value: 8



the numbers change but its all basically the same

and it will never trace back to startup there are so many of them any idea on how to get rid of them or filter it or something

Got the same problem here

If I hotplug the Disk I get this error. If the Disk is plugged in at boot and the usb_storage module is loaded the drive gets detected properly. I think its the chip of the drive or the USB chip on the mainboard that get not properly initialized with hotplugging.
