problems with accessing USB mass storage
Hi all,
I remastered 12-12-2002 Knoppix ISO to include vmware.
The guest OS in my case is windows 98 sitting on Transcend JetFlash (USB storage). And it is correctly recognised and mounted during boot-up. But when I try to boot-up the Virtual machine, it takes really long to start reading from the USB flash. I have inclded the kernel log for that, seems like something is timing out. How can I fix this problem.
Here is the output of
cat /proc/kmsg
<7>/dev/vmnet: open called by PID 453 (vmnet-bridge)
<7>/dev/vmnet: hub 0 does not exist, allocating memory.
<7>/dev/vmnet: port on hub 0 successfully opened

And from the vmware.log file: the following lines show whats
happennig during the two minute of inactivity.

Mar 12 10:25:50: VMX|USBGL: CONTROL failed -1:110:Connection timed out

I get these too, during bootup. I have a ruby script that runs and starts up a number of processes, initializes the home directories, does configuration - and runs from USB.
I get these errors (11 of them?) during the running of /etc/init.d/cupsys start.
Don't know why. Is it because we're running things from USB instead of just accessing USB?

Hi all,
Just tried to boot the guest OS sitting on USB flash, on Redhat 8.0 host. There it boots without any problems. Could it be because of some kernal partch implemented by Redhat, thats taking care of the USb timeout problem. Is there is similar patch for the kernal version used by knoppix ?
