I removed 'usb' from my HOOKS in mkinitcpio.conf. I do not
use usb mass storage for anything required for boot. And in
fact boot and everything but mounting usb mass storage
worked fine. I have tested the failure with multiple usb
ports (front and back), 2 different external hardrive
enclosures and multiple hard drives. the machine would
detect a device being plugged in, but not the storage that
was connected. As soon as I re-enabled usb in the conf and
booted up my device was again detected. I think this means
there's a problem with udev? as it must not have been
loading the appropriate kernel module on hotplug. But I'm
not sure how all of these thigns are working together
anymore. Will provide more information as requested.
