Hi again Dotan Cohen!

I was using the results of your good "Googeling" research when I ran
across this:

" Try a different cable. If the UHCI controller can operate the
device, but the EHCI controller cannot, you either have a broken
kernel build (unlikely) or the electrical connection cannot maintain
the 480 megabit performance. "

Here:

Actually, extension cables are not permitted in the USB-2 standard.

Also, when the drive is successfully mounted what is in messages  and
the output of mount?  Also, can you successfully unmount the drive and
then re-mount it by hand (perhaps not calling for the missing ISO
file)?

Have Fun!
