EX58 UD5 BIOS crash with Sandisk Cruzer USB stick

Re: EX58 UD5 BIOS crash with Sandisk Cruzer USB stick

Turns out that if any of my USB media is formatted in HFS+, the UD5 freezes early in the POST process (see my previous posting). When I reformatted my USB stick with FAT, there were no problems.
This isn't an actual solution in my situation, but it sure helps to know the cause.
Is anyone able to pass POST with an HFS+ formatted USB drive inserted? If so, which BIOS are you using? I am currently running F9K.
Thanks,
Lylehm

UPDATE: An HFS+ format on it's own is not the problem. The lock seems to only occur when a bootloader is installed on the volume (PC-EFI or Chameleon) I'll test more to narrow down the issue. If someone has already figured this out, please post! Thanks!

When I plug the BT receiver out of the hub and directly into a USB port its fine.

You found the solution. Lot of problems whit Usb-Hubs.
Have a hub for 2.0 and says 1.1 this can faster.
Problems whit 3 machines at home.
Try hub at Friends computers: 2 working 2.0 usb, 1 says 1.1 usb, they are al 2.0 usb
