Last night I did a grml2hd install at my home box. It is an old Dron based PC with ensoniq-1370 sound card.
It comes out that the install different from live-cd. The usb storage hotplug does not work any more, it was operational in live-cd usage (the usb stick was detected at /dev/sda1 and mounted automatically).
So, how do I get the functionality back?
What does "usb storage hotplug does not work any more" mean exactly? Mounting of usb-stick does not work anymore? The usb-modules aren't loaded? Which version of grml did you install? Does running 'Restart hotplug-light' as user root solve the problem?
JFYI: USB sticks are available through /dev/external1 -> /mnt/external1
I might have a buggy HD-install. Should I reinstall?
I think that usb-modules are not loaded even after starting hotplug-light. It comes out that usb-storage module is not loaded at system boot. Modprobe usb-storage, followed by hotplug-light start works fine.
Also, I am confused about entries in /etc/runlevel.conf, the third column has '-' in most of the entries. How is the runlevel (3rd col entry) determined for a service? For services: autofs, cupsys, hotplug-light, syslog-ng as in update-rc.d cupsys defaults 20 does not specify the runlevel of cupsys...
My guess for runlevels would be: autofs/3, cupsys/3, hotplug-light/3, syslog-ng/2?? For stopping these services I would guess runlevel 6.
Is there a rule of thumb for this decision?
