You are doing something wrong. Tail defaults to 10 lines of text. Yhe -f switch does continuos monitoring. Look:
Code:
root@shilo2:~# tail -f /var/log/dmesg /var/log/syslog /var/log/messages ==> /var/log/dmesg <==

Notice there is no prompt at the end. You need to use "ctrl-c" when you are all done.
If plugging in the External HDD doesn't report anything to the logs
A) (unlikely) Your logging is messed up
or
B) Your hardware is messed up.
Could be B). Seems from what you posted that you have something screwy with your IRQs.
