WHAT devices?? A generic screen-shot of a part of a boot screen, doesn't give us alot to go on. What kind of hardware?? What devices? Version/distro of Linux???

If you provide some details, we might be able to help

well, the linux distro is red hat linux, I need to get that to not say fail and say "OK" but I need to be able to get a USB device in DOS VFAT format to mount

If that is a failed boot on a custom kernel, it looks like the first place to look at would in menu/g/xconfig would be under "bus" and/or filesystems. How did you arrive at a kernel with no USB support?

For future consideration: your title and question leave a lot of room for guessing. Precision in the title and the question, as well as some background info will get you better help faster.

Yes it is a custom kernel, Its a kernel gave to us for a project, but it has no usb support so we need to enable it... It has no GUI iv'e just been using make menuconfig to enable things..

Does anyone know if I have to create a mount point for them? or do anything in "make menuconfig"?
