I'm having a problem with a Kodak USB flash reader. "camcontrol inquiry" gives me: pass0: Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device pass0: Serial Number pass0: 1.000MB/s transfers The device has printed on it: Kodak Multi-Card Reader CE2A012 KP P/N 7E3771 ITEM# 20209416 P/N 680-070-563 Reproducibly, if I begin copying data to a Lexar 256MB CF card (P/N 2250, Rev. A), it works for a while, then freezes the system. The first time this happened it was when trying to unmount the filesystem. The second time was in the midst of copying data. Both times the system was completely frozen; not even the keyboard LEDs toggled. Strangely, I could connect on the SSH and FTP ports, but received no welcome banner. The third time I modified the script I was using to copy my files to sync and sleep after each file. This time the system seemed to freeze, then lurch through handling several interrupts (mouse pointer moved and a menu popped up from right-clicking), then froze again. Initially connecting to the SSH port brought up the banner after a very long delay, but an attempt to reproduce this was unsuccessful, and I was unable to actually SSH in. Mounting the filesystem synchronously doesn't seem to help. The first time it worked, but then when I unmounted and remounted it and copied some more files it froze midway through. I'm running FreeBSD 5.3: FreeBSD beaker.data-secure.net 5.3-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE-p8 #1: Mon Apr 11 15:20:08 EDT 2005 root@beaker.data-secure.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 I will be fairly busy for the next few days but later this week I should be able to try out patches or set up a machine running a more cutting-edge source tree, if necessary. I've got FreeBSD 5.4-RC2 building today, actually; is it likely that this will solve my problem? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
