    Unhappy Re: How To Compile the new 2.6.16 kernel from kernel.org

    Something wrong. USB-disks stopped working. Looks like I disabled something important with needless-looking name. Any ideas?
    Ubuntu Linux install+configuration+software installation: 3 hoours.
    WindowsXP install+configuration+software installation: 5 hours

    These are the options that you need
    SCSI support --->
    <*> SCSI support
    --- SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM)
    <*> SCSI disk support
    File systems --->
    <*> DOS FAT fs support
    <*> MSDOS fs support
    < > UMSDOS: Unix-like file system on top of standard MSDOS fs
    <*> VFAT (Windows-95) fs support
    USB support --->
    <*> Support for USB
    <*> UHCI (Intel PIIX4, VIA, ...) support
    <*> OHCI (Compaq, iMacs, OPTi, SiS, ALi, ...) support
    <*> USB Mass Storage support

    I did not enable SCSI. Why do I need SCSI for USB? :-/

    The umass(4) driver uses the SCSI subsystem to access to the USB storage devices, your USB device will be seen as a SCSI device by the system. Depending on the USB chipset on your motherboard, you only need either device uhci or device ohci, however having both in the kernel configuration file is harmless
    If u look deeper enough you would have noticed ur USB HD's had a name like /dev/sdax or whatever. After it's all said and done you'll need to redo ur kernel with the SCSI system in there; basically like what Pay said.
