I have a Raspberry Pi 2 which was running successfully with Wheezy. I decided to upgrade to Jessie. When I plug in the external USB drive (LaCie Rugged THB USB 3.0), it crashes. I did an ssh and tailed the log while I plugged in the USB external drive and then it crashed:

I have zero problems with this drive before on Wheezy. If I plug in this USB drive and plug the Raspberry Pi 2 in, it won't boot. I have tested this same drive on another Linux system and it worked perfectly.

Anything from the above log indicate what to do about this problem? Are there additional things for USB drives to install?

The lines: 

Mar  3 19:53:42 raspberrypi kernel: [   94.463130] usb 1-1-port2: over-current change`

imply that somethings is wrong the the voltage that's being supplied to the drive. So there's a couple things that may be at work here.

Upgrade Woes:

The change from Wheezy to Jessie was drastic. So drastic that the foundation recommends not upgrading system in place, but rather doing a complete reinstall from a fresh image. There could be a number of systems that didn't handle the upgrade well, and are causing issues.

This might be fixable by going through different settings and doing a guess and check, but a reinstall would probably be easier/faster. It might be worth checking the max output settings in config.txt, but again, I'd suggest a clean install.

Possible Hardware Issues:

Either the drive or the port may have shorted. If it happens on the RPi, but works on the desktop, than the RPi may be damaged. If it doesn't work on the computer either, your drive is damaged.

The best way to check the RPi's ports would be to use a multimeter to check the power output of the USB ports. If you don't have one, try a different drive. If it reacts similarly, you're back to the RPi have some kind of issue.
