Maybe this is not a problem, but it's supposed that a /dev/uba1 is created,
after /dev/uba, instead of sdaX? well, on my system uba is created but
not /dev/uba1, and I've reported below a syslog excerpt for usb flash
pendrive; after that is still possible to mknod a uba1 device, and access the
pendrive, but after the pendrive is removed I get an oops and then usb layer
stops to work.
