Using askmethod doesn't work for me : i must use expert ! ...well in
fact i use the both :
linux askmethod expert :-p (without the :-p) :-D
From the link i sent, i modify this :
*######################################
echo "*** Loading usb-modules ***"
insmod /lib/usb-storage.ko
**insmod /lib/uhci-hdc.ko
**insmod /lib/ohci-hdc.ko*
*insmod /lib/ehci-hcd.ko
/bin/sleep 10
*
and copy the module to lib of course :)
