Description of problem: I plug in my usb key and it is recognized, but fails to mount. The appropriate bits from /var/log/messages: Aug 8 13:40:27 localhost kernel: usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 Aug 8 13:40:27 localhost kernel: usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Aug 8 13:40:27 localhost kernel: scsi4 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: Vendor: LEXAR Model: JUMPDRIVE Rev: 1.20 Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 01 CCS Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: SCSI device sdb: 1001952 512-byte hdwr sectors (513 MB) Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sdb: Write Protect is off Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sdb: assuming drive cache: write through Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: SCSI device sdb: 1001952 512-byte hdwr sectors (513 MB) Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sdb: Write Protect is off Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sdb: assuming drive cache: write through Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sdb: sdb1 Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdb Aug 8 13:40:33 localhost kernel: sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fc6-test2 kernel-2.6.17-1.2517.fc6 How reproducible: You would need the same USB key -- hopefull the log gives enough information to at least get somewhere. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug in USB key 2. Check /var/log/messages 3. Wait for it to be mounted
Happens to me too since I upgraded the kernel: $ tail /var/log/messages Nov 15 17:39:01 prower kernel: usb 5-7: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8 Nov 15 17:39:01 prower kernel: usb 5-7: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Nov 15 17:39:01 prower kernel: scsi6 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: Vendor: USB 2.0 Model: Flash Disk Rev: 0.00 Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: SCSI device sdb: 4030464 512-byte hdwr sectors (2064 MB) Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sdb: Write Protect is off Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sdb: assuming drive cache: write through Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: SCSI device sdb: 4030464 512-byte hdwr sectors (2064 MB) Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sdb: Write Protect is off Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sdb: assuming drive cache: write through Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sdb: sdb1 Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdb Nov 15 17:39:06 prower kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 Still, the device is not mounted. I can manually mount and unmount it only as root. $ uname -r 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 This didn't happen with the kernel I had before updating (I forgot which version it was).
Hello, I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the Fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug, however this version of Fedora is no longer maintained. Please attempt to reproduce this bug with a current version of Fedora (presently Fedora 8). If the bug no longer exists, please close the bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no further information lodged. Thanks for using Fedora!
Closing per previous comment. If you can provide the requested information, please feel free to re-open this bug.
