Hi again,
<-- as you can probably see I'm running Mandrake 10. I have a Buffalo 128Mb Usb stick. I checked out the howto and got the thing working. Well, it worked once, then never again. I get some weird errors about "scsimon" when viewing the "tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages" output. When I try to mount the drive it just... does nothing
So, here's the "tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages" output:

All I know is that the problem has something to do with the word scsi
I'm so
that I again need to ask you guys... what now?
