Posted: Sun Jan 04, 2009 10:28 am Post subject: some usb-related modules not registering

I'm trying to access a USB storage device from my ASUS WL-500gP V2, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm using the dd-wrt.v24_mega_generic.bin firmware, and I also read the thread at http://dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=33484| and the page at http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/USB_storage

having enabled USB at the admin page, etc., I can't be able to load some of the related modules. I'm staring with:

Code:

# lsmod
Module Size Used by
ip_nat_pptp 2428 0 (unused)
ip_conntrack_pptp 2860 1
ip_nat_proto_gre 1664 0 (unused)
ip_conntrack_proto_gre 2568 0 [ip_nat_pptp ip_conntrack_pptp]
jffs2 159080 1
switch-robo 5356 0 (unused)
switch-core 6416 0 [switch-robo]

then starting to load the modules:

Code:

insmod usbcore
insmod ehci-hcd

gives me:

Code:

usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs
usb.c: registered new driver hub
ehci_hcd 00:03.1: PCI device 14e4:471a
ehci_hcd 00:03.1: irq 6, pci mem b8003800
usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
ehci_hcd 00:03.1: illegal capability!
ehci_hcd 00:03.1: USB 0.0 enabled, EHCI 1.00, driver 2003-Dec-29/2.4
hub.c: USB hub found

usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=2 (error=-71)
hub.c: new USB device 00:03.1-1, assigned address 3
usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=3 (error=-71)

and trying to load additional modules, like scsi-mod, usb-storage simply doesn't work:

Code:

root@DD-WRT:~# insmod scsi-mod
root@DD-WRT:~# insmod usb-storage
root@DD-WRT:~# lsmod
Module Size Used by
ehci-hcd 22060 0 (unused)
usbcore 81880 0 [ehci-hcd]
ip_nat_pptp 2428 0 (unused)
ip_conntrack_pptp 2860 1
ip_nat_proto_gre 1664 0 (unused)
ip_conntrack_proto_gre 2568 0 [ip_nat_pptp ip_conntrack_pptp]
jffs2 159080 1
switch-robo 5356 0 (unused)

maybe I'm missing something obvious - what am I doing wrong?

You need usb-ohci.o instead of ehci-hcd

you need to use at least svn 10404 tng to get USB work properly on wl-500g P v2

v24 sp1 is 10012

I'm using svn 11296, sometimes it still can't find the usb device after reboot. Need to plug out and plug into another usb port. Most of the time it works fine. The latest svn is recommended.

The unstable SVN version is in the others/EKO directory

Eko TNG svn 11296

dd-wrt.v24-11296_NEWD_mega.bin
TNG means the next generation,V24 SP2
NEWD means new driver, 500gpv2 should use NEWD version

dd-wrt.v24_mega_generic.bin

This one is in BS's directory,I havn't tested it (yet).See this thread http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=45701&sid=5c1053aff4dbd4ba914bf0aa3a5c3355

Excellent! USB and Auto-mount worked out of the box... however I have 4 partitions on the USB hard drive so I'm not sure what was automatically mounted (at this point), but it definitely mounted something as I can see "lost+found" in /mnt/ =D

This is on my WRT350N... I felt a little confident upgrading to this firmware as I see you are using the same router Wink

Just noticed 'Disk Info' tab populated after mounting...

Code:

--- /dev/discs/disc0/disc
Block device, size 931.5 GiB (1000204886016 bytes)
DOS/MBR partition map
Partition 1: 1.953 GiB (2097414144 bytes, 4096512 sectors from 63)
Type 0x83 (Linux)
Ext3 file system
UUID 78C7B83E-5256-4B19-8EFE-C0142370D266 (DCE, v4)
Volume size 1.953 GiB (2097414144 bytes, 512064 blocks of 4 KiB)
Partition 2: 258.9 MiB (271434240 bytes, 530145 sectors from 4096575)
Type 0x82 (Linux swap / Solaris)
Linux swap, version 2, subversion 1, 4 KiB pages, little-endian
Swap size 258.9 MiB (271425536 bytes, 66266 pages of 4 KiB)
Partition 3: 1.953 GiB (2097446400 bytes, 4096575 sectors from 4626720)
Type 0x83 (Linux)
Ext3 file system
UUID D2244954-5B23-4FD3-8ED8-EFFCB215C129 (DCE, v4)
Volume size 1.953 GiB (2097442816 bytes, 512071 blocks of 4 KiB)
Partition 4: 927.4 GiB (995735946240 bytes, 1944796770 sectors from 8723295)
Type 0x0B (Win95 FAT32)
FAT32 file system (hints score 5 of 5)
Volume size 926.9 GiB (995249963008 bytes, 60745237 clusters of 16 KiB)
Volume name "MYBOOK-002"
Status: Mounted on /mnt

So I'm guessing the FAT32 partition named "MYBOOK-002" was the one that automatically mounted.

I've been following the wiki...
http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/USB_storage#Step_1_-_Partition_and_format_your_USB_drive

Quote:

one: for optware packages - make it 32MB - 2GB - use ext2/3 as the format
two: for swap file - make it 16-256 MB - format it as linux swap file
three: for data space - make it fit the rest of the disk - use ext2/3 or FAT32 as the format
four: for jffs space - make it 32MB - 2GB - use ext2/3 as the format

Except I switched 3&4, so 4th partition is the FAT32 with the left-over space. Hopefully things will be smooth sailing now.
