I only just started playing with USB storage. I picked up a 
LaCie USB/Firewire CDRW drive on a recent trip. Same results 
as above when I disconnect the cable from the host. I've also
never actually managed to get it to probe/attach the CDRW
drive inside. It attaches an atapibus to a umass but falls
short of seeing the device inside.

But given it was my first attempt at any of this, I chalked
it up to me doing something wrong.

Sorry for the 'me too'. I know it's not helping anyone.
