Hi,

I have tried that:

        shire:/tmp# modprobe usb_storage
        shire:/tmp# lsmod|grep usb
        usb_storage            69056  0
        usbcore               119044  4 usb_storage,uhci_hcd
        ide_core              139940  5
usb_storage,ide_cd,ide_generic,via82cxxx,ide_disk
        scsi_mod              125228  3 usb_storage,sd_mod,libata

but with no success. When I attach the USB key, the computer does not
notice it and when I try to look what is on it for example as follows

        shire:/tmp# fdisk /dev/sda
        Unable to open /dev/sda

        shire:/tmp# cat /tmp/sda
        cat: /tmp/sda: No such file or directory

it seems to be dead.
