Strange. I will redo the thing and see if something changes the second
time. I am quite sure I loaded hsom but of course without udev running
(init=/bin/bash) no devices were created.

I don't remember, will redo it.

Well, the point is that under these circumstances, as I explained,
*there*is*no*problem*, I can use the device without any problems.

Only when I turn of the computer and turn it on again the device simply
does not show up in the usb system.

have a special 'quick release' feature which enables the case to flip
