I already opened a < topic > in a different Forum but I thought this issue is more adeguate to this one.The problem is DSL only detects a very old 128MB USB pen.
I tryed with the same computer on the same port pens of many brands and sizes but only that one works.
I had the suggestion to do a fdisk -l obtaining with the working pen

As all pens are not listen at all, I can't understand why only one pen is liked.
I think a pen must be detected in order to use it to boot; which pens are good and which are not? (And why?)
Thanks, Fede

What happens in dmesg after you plug one in/boot with one?

I did dmesg (last 60 lines) anf fdisk -l with- no pen
- 1 GB pen
- 128 MB pen (the working ont);
with this output

Open emelfm, double click /mnt in the right pane. It should list the mount points for your hard drive and other storage media you've hotplugged. There will be at least sda1 for the one pen, possibly other points for other pens (sdb1, sdc1, etc.) you've inserted. Hotplug assigns mount points sequentially for different devices, it doesn't recycle the same point (i.e., sda1) for different ones automatically.

I had the suggestion to do a fdisk -l obtaining with the working pen [/home/dsl]# fdisk -l |
Please try this instead so you don't keep pasting in output related to your hard drive:
fdisk -l /dev/devicename
where devicename is the point that should be set either as sda, sdb, sdc, etc., depending how many pens you've inserted.

When I insert the 128MB pen I see in /mnt a new sdb1 dir when I insert the 1GB one nothing happens.Fede

It's setting the 128mb pen at sdb1? What's being set at sda1?

Problems are over! 
As said it might was a BIOS issue, so I entered it and disabled the parallel and serial ports.
The 1GB pen worked!
"So it depends from the hosting cumputer" I thought and I moved my tryes fron the laptop to the desktop.
On the desktop all the pens worked.
Thanks to all,
Fede
