Some questions:

What's your udev and kernel version?

Did you configure your kernel to use USB storage (if in doubt, post your 
kernel config)?

Does the system detect the devices when you plug them in (post the last few 
lines of dmesg output after plugging in each device)

What does udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/sdX) tell you (replace X 
with the appropriate letter for each device)?

Maybe we can sort this out.

Bye...
