If I boot puppy 5.2, with 2 hard disks installed then I cannot see any flash drives. Hard Disk 1: /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda4 /dev/sda3 is swap and does not show up as expected. /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdb4 /dev/sdb3 is swap and does not show up as expected. Flash drives at this point should show up as /dev/sdc1...etc This does not happen. But if I boot with only 1 hard disk then I do see the flash drives when I plug them in. The icon sr0 does correctly show up. Also, if I boot puppy from a flash stick then I do not see the flash drive with puppy on it. Puppy should show as /dev/sdc1 but does not show at all. Also interestingly in the /dev directory there are entries for /dev/sdc3 - /dev/sdc15 BUT NO /dev/sdc1 or /dev/sdc2. Also as a side note: can you include the program "partimage" in your future releases. Thanks. |

I don't have two hard disks to test the problem described above, but I have a different problem that may be related or not. * Right-click a partition and select "Run Desktop Drive Icon Manager * Click the Icon Handler tab * Select the second option, "Tick for auto-launch handler when media plugged in" * Click OK * Restart X External media such as a pen drive is then supposed to be detected, mounted and opened in the file manager automatically. Instead, pmount pops up for a second and closes, pops up for a second and closes, pops up for a second and closes, pops up for a second and closes... forever! Anyobody can confirm? |

For both of you. How are you running Puppy? Live CD, frugal or full install? Was it an upgrade? |

The problem might be udevd which is dynamically handling also the device nodes . of course the usb drivers have to be loaded, which is done by rc.sysinit using udev , which had many times corrupted files at /dev/.udev , which resulted in not loading several drivers , especially [e-o-u]hci_hcd . you can try runnig
to refresh the device nodes or do it manually using
and
attached example how to create missing blockdevices
