Topic: USB Storage on 500gp 2.6

Hello,
I have Kamikaze 7.09 running on a Asus 500gp with a Atheros wifi card. I followed this guide  to mount a USB storage but it fails:

root@OpenWrt:~# ipkg install kmod-usb2
Package kmod-usb2 (2.6.22-brcm47xx-1) installed in root is up to date.
Nothing to be done
Done.
root@OpenWrt:~# insmod ehci-hcd
insmod: cannot insert '/lib/modules/2.6.22/ehci-hcd.ko': Invalid parameters (17): Invalid argument

Any other insmod command of the guide fails.

lsmod says:

root@OpenWrt:~# lsmod | grep ehci
ehci_hcd               28016  0
usbcore               102032  5 usb_storage,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd,ohci_hcd

This is my dmesg output:

root@OpenWrt:~# dmesg | grep usb
usbcore: registered new interface driver usbfs
usbcore: registered new interface driver hub
usbcore: registered new device driver usb
usb usb1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usb usb2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usb usb3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usb 3-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage
usb-storage: device found at 2
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
usb-storage: device scan complete

EDIT:

root@OpenWrt:~# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 8086 MB, 8086617600 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 983 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1         984     7897056    b  W95 FAT32
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(982, 254, 63) logical=(983, 36, 12)

but I can't mount it:

root@OpenWrt:~# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb/
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /mnt/usb/ failed

Any ideas ? Thanks,
Tex
