2.6 Kernel and USB

[William O'Higgins]

I've been trying for a while to get a 2.6 kernel installed on my
desktop, without total success.  I get large swathes of things right,
but being able to mount my USB key has never happened.  I tried again
last week, got the same non-result, and started poking around.  It seems
that, during the boot process, there are a bunch of modules that throw
FATAL errors, but I can't seem to find a log of that part of the boot
process.  Once the machine is up and running, all I need to do is:
sudo modprobe ehci_hcd
sudo modprobe uhci_hcd
and then I can mount my USB key just fine.

I could just add those lines (do I need both?) to my rc.local, but that
seems stupid - something isn't going right in the module loading
process and it should be fixable, no?

Any pointers?  Thanks.

yours,

William
