Ladies and Gentlemen, I believe that I may have stumbled upon the reason as to why the alauda driver is able to mount picture cards perfectly in openSUSE 10.2, yet is unable to mount them in oS 10.3 and later. In oS 10.2, the hard disks were labeled as hda, hdb, etc. However, starting in oS 10.3, the labelling has changed to sda, sdb, etc. In oS 10.2, as well as in Windows, the Xd and Sd slots of my Olympus MAUSB-10 register as sda and sdb, respectively. Is it possible that there is a conflict here? It seems that the alauda driver wants to label these slots as sda and sdb, but is unable to do so, because these labels are already taken by the hard disks in oS 10.3 and later. Perhaps the driver is unable to assign alternate scsi-device ids, and as such, just gives up, thus leaving picture cards unmounted. Please look into this matter as soon as possible. Karl Scheel |
