I had a AJB6000 (Original 6GB player) which I recently upgraded to the 20 GB recorder. All of the AJBs except the 20 GB recorder use the ISD-200 interface which has its own special driver module. You should have CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_ISD200=y in your kernel config file. You will also need the general USB stuff. Your choice of OCHI vs UCHI modules will depend upon your chipset: ``lspci'', ``cat /proc/pci'' and ``cat /proc/bus/pci/devices'' may yield some clues as to which driver is appropriate. I have the following in my /etc/fstab (minus the linebreak): /dev/sda1 /mnt.dir/jukebox vfat \ defaults,user,gid=1005,fmask=664,dmask=775,noauto I find it easiest to maintain the directories on the AJB by setting up a mirror system under my home directory and using rsync to update the jukebox. As a side note, the 20 GB recorder is supported with the standard usb mass storage drivers, and has usb 2.0 support under 2.4.19-pre kernels. It will hang your USB stack if you plug it in without first turning it on, however.
