Not something I have played with before but isn't it possible that once the kernel has booted the device nodes may change (the drive won't be on /dev/hda because that would be your Laptops internal drive surely) and it is probably therefore needing something like /dev/sda for the usb mass storage controller.
You've hit the nail on the head there Wayne. I hadn't realised that it would appear as a SCSI drive. SCSI Disc support was not set in the kernel although I have now corrected that but I won't be trying it again until tomorrow.
Thanks
