On a small Celeron-based appliance, Usb2 disk is not recognized *if* it is connected during kernel boot. But if not connected during boot, and I connect it later, it is recognized and works ok. I tried various 2.6.16, 17 and 18 kernels, both modular, and all-static, with the same result. What can this be. This is ehci controller. Can it be problematic Irq assignments on the motherboard ? Btw, during boot, access lights go on forever on the Usb drive. Couple of kernels are stuck at this point. Most kernels go through, but disk is still not recognized. If I disconnect and re-connect usb drive later, then it is never recognized (if it was connected earlier during boot). Again, if the disk was not connected during boot, all kernels recognize it and work with it.
