[solved] Strange problem with USB

Few days ago i've bought some new hardware for my pc: socket 1150 motherboard on H81 chipset, suitable CPU and SSD. I have successfully moved my existing Arch installation from mdadm raid-1 to SSD, configured grub & fstab and system has started up without any issues.

But my happiness wasn't so long. I have noticed that OS doesn't see my mp3 player which has only memory on it's microSD card. Then i have tried ordinary USB-stick with the same result.

In the same time, Arch which has loaded from that very USB-stick is able to mount mp3 player.

I have 2 kernels on my machine and some messages are different, so I noted logs for both.

4.5.4-1-ZEN x86_64 only USB-stick connected

Re: [solved] Strange problem with USB

Excuse me for the images, i didn't expect they will be so large.

The problem is solved. Reinstalling kernels helped in my case. Now I can mount USB-stick and microSD card of my mp3 player.
