Hello mobiliscenti,

$subject running 4.5-RELEASE since 2002, no problems but perenially full
4GB drive and way-too-ancient wi for newer cards: past time to upgrade.  

5.4 CDs and new 40GB drive arriving in a few days.  In the meanwhile have
borrowed an external USB 2.5" 20GB drive for hopefully clean full backup,
but after much struggle and study I just can't get it to go despite USB
and SCSI attachment seeming fine.  Always, bottom line, 'Unit not ready'.

The external USB drive is recognised, attached and works fine on 2 'doze
boxes, a '98 desktop and a modern Compaq laptop running XP; on the former
I created a FAT32 first partition and copied a few files onto it.

Relevant extracts from dmesg.boot are below, but first I'll describe the
problem appearance; perhaps someone will recognise it straight up?  This
is using an added USB 4 port powered hub, the ext drive having an extra
power-only USB plug reportedly needed by some USB systems; no difference:

Adding the drive:

.. which is what happens on any attempt to read from the drive.  I added
SCSI debugging to the kernel and can bombard you with voluminous reports
while having debug enabled, but it always comes back to the above; for
some reason the drive is not being made ready, or not being seen as such.

Any clues?

Cheers, Ian
