Go back to your configuration and go under the USB and enable most of as modules then rerun your compile. What distro you working with?

mike:/home/mike# modprobe uhci-hcd
mike:/home/mike# modprobe ehci-hcd
mike:/home/mike# modprobe usb-storage
mike:/home/mike# fdisk -l

Now you check if some /dev/sd* entries have appeared.
Code:
ls -l /dev/sd*

Nope.

Forgot to mention but thought it would have not compiled. Did you include some basic scsi. Reason is USB uses the scsi interface platform to interact even if you have no scsi hardware. Might as well print a copy of your .config file. Then we will see what needs to be changed. Reason I say that is I don't see sd_mod in your module list. Might try loading that and see if fdisk -l sees it. Also while in the scsi part check the box for multilun support. Needed if one uses multiport card readers.

Under your kernel source folder /usr/src/kernel******. There should be a saved file called ' .config '. Just cut and paste to the forum. Stick it in the code brackets like you done above. Going out for the night check back tomorrow afternoon.
