    Has anyone has any success using USB memory
    sticks on Debian 3.0? I am using kernel
    2.4.26 with the following needed options
    compiled into my kernel, but I cannot see my
    memory stick.

    SCSI support
    * CONFIG_SCSI scsi_mod.o
    * CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD sd_mod.o

    File systems
      * CONFIG_FAT_FS fat.o
      * CONFIG_MSDOS_FS msdos.o
      * CONFIG_VFAT_FS vfat.o
      * CONFIG_PROC_FS
      * CONFIG_EXT2_FS ext2.o

    USB support
      * CONFIG_USB usbcore.o
      * CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS
      * CONFIG_USB_STORAGE usb-storage.o

    I've also loaded the usb-storage module
    and mounted the USB filesystem:
    mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb

    I have two zero byte files (devices and drivers) in
    /proc/bus/usb, but I don't have any
    usb-storage files in /proc/scsi.

    Is this a sign my device isn't supported? Am I
    doing something wrong? If I take this memory
    stick to a Windows 2000 box, it detects it as
    a 'USB NAND FLASH DISK USB Device'.

    Thanks for your help.

    Michael
