That is beyond me I'm afraid. Hotplug usb devices are tricky somewhat even with 2.6 if you are trying to auto run scripts associated with a hot plug
OH, yea. Sata drives and Sarge 2.6 don't mix well. I've never tried Etch on a Sata machine. I know that some this do work with one and not the other. Sarge 2.6 does not have MegaRaid drivers Etch 2.6 has MegaRaid drivers!! At 01:41 PM 7/20/2006 -0700, Vandoorn, Yvo wrote: >I should've mentioned that there is no gui.
