Title: Ratoc USB Host
Post by: SteelMyst on September 20, 2004, 06:46:06 am

I am trying to use the drivers from this site. REX-CFU1 Device Driver for Linux Zaurus (http://paipai.org/~humorum/english/zaurus/cfu1-driver.html)

No errors were reported during the install and the card appears to be recognized, however the device files are not present. Example: USB storage devices like external HDD's and flash card readers use sda1. Could someone show me how to create these files?

TIA,
Nick

You need the SCSI kernel modules, sd_mod and scsimod specifically.

The way I got them was to build the kernel and turn the various scsi modules on.

Other replacement kernels might have the modules pre-compiled.  They need to be in /home/root/modules/2.4.-----something----/kernel/drivers/scsi or someplace similar, and you need to do depmod -a.
