From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7 Description of problem: I've noticed that 70% of the time, FC runs fine and will mount my XIMETA NetDisk 120GB external harddrive, connected by USB 2.0. The other 30% of the time, when I start, I find out (from dmseg) that usb-storage module was added to kernel, /dev/sda1,2,5 and 6 where added, (my 4 partitions) but by the time init is done they're gone. mount /dev/sda1 will show: mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist If I unplug the device and re-plug it, THEN it will mount. A big pain, considering I use it for backups and I boot around 2-3 times a day. I must do this: /sbin/rmmod usb-storage /sbin/modprobe usb-storage and then the USB drives will re-load. The next few boots, USB drives will mount at startup. Then, I must do this whole process again.

Reboot about 20 times, or until the devices stop auto-mounting Actual Results: The devices would not mount on bootup Expected Results: The USB drives should have been mounted Additional info: /lib/modules/2.6.13-1.1526_FC4/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko Is the path to the kernel module, my kernel is: kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4 and uname -a is: Linux DellLin.localdomain 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4 #1 Wed Sep 28 19:15:10 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Hello, I havn't tested the new kernel *yet*, I'm waiting for the NTFS / NVIDIA kernel module RPMs to come out. Although, since kernel update ...16_53_FC4, it has not happened. I also found a bunch of ATRPMS packages on my system, so maybe that was causing the conflict... Thank you for your time and intrest, Firewing1
ok, reopen if it reoccurs.
