Restore behind USB hub problem

(1/4) > >>

Daniel:
Hi all,

I am trying to use TCL 3.8rc2 on an usb key (with syslinux 4.04).
Boot perfectly :) on my machine (with backup configuration).

BUT if i put the usb key behind an usb hub, no restore is done at boot time!

I join /var/log/messages ... here : http://dl.free.fr/r7e3KNFJ9

I don't know if it is a TCL problem or a maybe BIOS problem!

Thanks
Daniel.

[Edit]
I can't see usb boot device /dev/sdxx ... impossible to mount!

Juanito:
perhaps you need to increase the usb boot delay when your stick is behind a hub?

boot code "waitusb=x" - try x=10 for 10 seconds

Daniel:
I do test with x=10: same results :(

Thanks
Daniel.

Juanito:
Did you try referring to your stick using uuid or a label - maybe its name changes behind a hub?

see:

http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:uuid

Daniel:
No.
the normal syslinux command is
--- Code: ---append boot=/ initrd=/tinycore.gz vga=789 modeset=1 kmaps=fr-latin9  quiet splash
--- End code ---

It runs perfectly without usb hub.


I don't see my usb key in /dev/sdx ( i see /dev/sda +1 to 9 and /dev/sdb +1 to 9 ) : i have only 2 partitions.

it is as the usb boot key device is not seen on usb.

[edit]
I can't mount the device!
and if i force it, there is no file!

If i put an other usb key in the hub, it is seen.
