USB flashdrive: no /dev
This is driving me nuts, and I apologize if this has been covered before. I've searched the archives & WiKi as well as Google, but apparently I'm still overlooking something. The answer will probably be something pathetically obvious, but I need to get this working ASAP.
Just compiled a new kernel (2.6.15.6) in Slackware 10.2+, and I can't get my USB flash drives to work. Other USB devices work, including the keyboard & mouse. Flash drives worked fine in my previous 2.6.11.7 kernel.
Here's the /var/log/messages output:
Mar 22 07:36:50 virga kernel: usb 1-2.4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10

Mar 22 07:36:55 virga kernel: 5:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0
With the same kernel, this is what I get at home with the same flash drive:

What am I missing in the kernel???? I don't seem to be getting a /dev/sda device created.
Thanks!
