You could try two things:
1) If that is a kernel panic (which I assume), it should tell you that
is going to reboot IFF you do not press a key on your keyboard. Pressing
a key should stop the reboot timer and give you time to copy the message
by hand.
2) What happens if you plug the drive in _after_ the system has started?

Dumbing down the drive should not be needed, as it can't (normally) do
any USB 2.x stuff over a USB 1.1 link (ie. it should dumb down itself)
