Robert, I have recompiled the kernel (2.4.24) to include scsi support in addition to usb. Here are the relevent lines from dmesg:
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices es1371: version v0.32 time 17:29:13 Jan 31 2004 usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs usb.c: registered new driver hub host/uhci.c: USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver v1.1 Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage However, there is nothing listed in /proc/scsi/scsi about the usb hard drive and I can not mount it.: Contents of /proc/scsi/scsi: Attached devices: none Results of mount: # mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt # mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device (as a reminder, the SystemRescue CD shows the drive as sda, and the partition as sda1) Do you have any other thoughts?

You need the usb-storage module, which is an "interface between the > USB stack and the SCSI layer". > > After you have compiled the kernel and rebooted (or added the relevant > modules, which is usb-storage.o), you should check /proc/scsi/scsi. > Information about your device should be listed." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
