I have the exact same problem with my SOYO Cigar Thumb drive, it's a 64MB piece. My system picks up the drive but I don't think it loads the driver for it. If I cat /proc/bus/usb/drivers/0.. or /1.., it shows that the drive is indeed detected.. but system does not translate from there to a "sda" or "sdb" device. How do I go about manually mounting or translating from there to a "sda" or "sdb" device?

I have tried 'echo "add single-device 0 0 1 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi' to no avail. Please advise on correct usage. Normally if driver is loaded for a device, specifically an emulated device, you can 'cat /proc/scsi/scsi' and it would list all devices loaded, including any cd-rom drives.

Please help. I've been stuck on this for over half a year and no one is able to assist. I lost hope. I now find you and I believe you can shed some light into this.

Thanks in advance.
