You should feel priviliged. It took me months on and off to think I might be close. I do have some bad news though - you probably should have stayed with Paulus' tree, since Matt did think that there was some endian bugs, and I am pretty sure Paul had at least a floppy disk working. > THE PROBLEM: I am not able to mount my Zip drive: > > [root scsi]# mount /mnt/usbzip/ > mount: /dev/sdb4 has wrong major or minor number weird > THE DESCRIPTION: > I have the following /etc/fstab entry for the Zip > > /dev/sdb4 /mnt/usbzip auto noauto,user 0 0 > > I have also tried with sda4. Which should be the right device - this Powerbook is IDE, right? No SCSI attached? Then it should be on /dev/sda. But maybe /dev/sda1 if it is HFS disk?

This is showing up correctly in /proc/bus/usb/devices and /proc/bus/usb/drivers, right? The drive shows up and the usb-storage driver is associated with it? Any more kernel debug messages? ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
