[Devil-Linux-discuss] U3 Sticks

[Frank W. <Fra...@ct...>]

Hi all,

just a quick note to inform you that DL seems to have trouble when the conf=
ig=20
is on U3 Sticks (at least on the disk2go model I have): if the stick is=20
connected when the firewall is powered on, DL only sees the U3 partition.=20
When the system is booted and you reinsert the stick, DL sees everything=20
correctly. Maybe it's a matter of 'probe-multiple-luns-on-all-devices'.....=
=20

The U3 stick shows up as 2 devices, even on windows: the U3 partition is=20
immutable (/dev/sr{n}, shown as a cd-rom drive on windows) and the writable=
=20
and partitionnable /dev/sd{x}.

So if you are in doubt and have the choice, avoid U3 memory sticks for DL.



Have a nice week-end,
