Hi,
I was testing some things with a usb hardisk for backups.
it all workt fine but later the usb disk did not mount anymore after a reinstall of the OS.
In the meantime i installed the system for about 8 times and still not...
if i take a look in this:
[root@rik media]# egrep "(kernel|fstab|scsi).*(usb|USB)" /var/log/messages
I get this result:
