Howdy all,
I'm very pleased to be able to tell you that Micro Solutions
has just made available the "BACKPACK USB Loader".
It is available here:
http://www.micro-solutions.com/software_library/linux/index3.html
This package provides the firmware and scripts to allow
"BACKPACK USB" products (including USB2 products) to be used with the
"linux-usb-storage" driver.
This package ties into the usb-hotplug layer, so that the drive may simply
be plugged in and it will be recognized as a linux-usb-storage device.
This package depends on the linux-hotplug and fxload packages.
If your distribution is missing these packages, you may wish to obtain them
at:
http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net/
(look in the USB section)
Thanks go to the usb-hotplug and linux-usb teams as well as the author of
fxload. Oh and of course the obligatory thanks to all linux kernel
developers for doing a great job.
Hope this will help all Linux users of BACKPACK products,
Ken Hahn
Engineer, Micro Solutions
