8.USB conflicts and system reboots.
Configurations that include a USB 1.1 mass storage device under the same OHCI root hub as the USB keyboard can cause conflicts resulting in system reboot. You can use the "usbview" tool to view the topology of the USB root hubs to avoid such configurations. If improperly configured, refreshing the data in usbview while the USB mass storage device is being accessed may cause your system to reboot.
To view the topology using usbview:
a.Launch usbview
b.Attach the USB mass storage device
c.If usbview shows both the mass storage device and the USB keyboard under the same OHCI root hub, relocate the mass storage device to a different USB port
d.Close usbview before using the mass storage device and do not reopen it or any other applications that use usbdevfs while using the device.
