Dear list,
I'm trying to get usb hotplugging working on a embedded system but it
doesn't (seem to) work. As far as i understand all the documents I've
read, /sbin/hotplug (depending on /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug) should be
called whenever plugging in a device. I guess I've forgot to enable
something in my kernel configuration but I can't find what went wrong.
I've tried 2.6.8 and 2.6.12 with busybox 1.01.
anyone any suggestion?
wim.

I think, there are some modifications needed to the hotplug to work with
busybox. Either in shell script syntax, or something else - can't say
exactly. Try to google for "hotplug busybox". I think, there was even a
special version of hotplug for busybox somewhere...
Thanks

The solution was pretty easy. I didn't loaded all the usb drivers I
needed. After loading uhci_hcd, I got the result I wanted, my devices
were made by devfsd.
