I didn't boot from a CD and cleaned /dev yet, but I'll give it a try. Meanwhile, I upgraded the kernel and added a config option (for firewire) that was missing (for supporting HD's). The nodes /dev/external_hd and /dev/external_hd1 exist now, but as for the memstick, only /dev/plextor_memstick (no /dev/plextor_memstick1, meaning no mounting). Chaos, as I said. > Otherwise I don't know what else to look at, sorry. OK, thanks anyway. Jorge -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
