Hi,
I recently noticed weird behaviour with my USB memorystick. This is on
AMD64 unstable, with:
linux-image-2.6.22-2-amd64
udev 0.114-2
I have defined the following udev rule:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="13e0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2517", KERNEL=="sd*",
SYMLINK+="usb/stick%n", OPTIONS+="all_partitions"
The memorystick has one primary partition (vfat).
When the stick is inserted while booting, udev correctly creates the
desired symlinks:
# ls -l /dev/usb
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2007-09-30 17:30 stick -> ../sda
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2007-09-30 17:30 stick1 -> ../sda1
However, when I insert the same memorystick after the computer is booted, only
the symlink to /dev/sda is created.
Also, the kernel messages are quit different in these two cases.
When I insert the stick after booting, the kernel log shows the following:
Sep 30 17:54:15 casper kernel: usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address 10

However, looking back in the kernel boot log (that is, with the
memorystick inserted), I see:

Does this problem sound familiar to anyone on this list?
Thanks,
Iwan
