I just upgraded to Centos 5 and now I am having problems with my ipods
mounting.

I used to have to remove the ehci_hcd modual in order to get any usb
drives (flash, ipod) to show up and then I could mount them and use them
with no problems.

now When I plug in a flash drive things work fine but when I plug in my
ipods (ver 4g and 5.5g) they show up in /var/log/messages

It will sit there for a few seconds and then disconnect, reconnect and
repeat.

If I unload ehci_hcd now it will load, mount and stay stable but I can't
read or write to the drive.  It gives I/O errors.

Following is and excerpt from /var/log/messages.

BTW this is happening when I have the ipods booted into Rockbox or IPod.
