It says scanning ports 1 and 2, but it never finds my usb hdd. Any idea why not?
is the hd connected to the usb port without hub?
what boot manager version do you use?
Yup, tried connecting it directly to each port on my laptop, no hubs. Still no dice.
I tried 5.0.11-test3 first, then 5.0.11-pcmcia-test3 for kicks. Neither worked.
please try 5.0.10 too
what happened when you boot the laptop without hd connected. then do a dummy usb boot without hd connected, then connect the hd and try usb again.
do you see the port scan at ehci, uhci or ohci?
I'm about to try 5.0.10...
I did do the dummy boot, though, and it scanned both ports (EHCI, I think, it was the first one it tries) invariably, it searches two ports first, and for the last two drivers, it finds no hubs.
only for ehci??? very strange
when you can use linux, then please post the output of "lspci -v >lspci.txt" as attachment
for windows use pci32.exe http://members.net-tech.com.au/dft0802/downloads.htm
Yup, only EHCI. 5.0.10 has the same results.
This was lspci's output:

the hard disk is connected with an usb hub to the root hub. so when you have no external hub connected, then its an internal hub. so it will not work with the plop boot manager 5.0.x
