Troubleshooting • RPi 5 mounting error of portable SSD: Filesystem type f2fs not configured in kernel

My portable SSD shows following error in dmesg while trying to mount on a particular RPi 5 4GB :

[ 20.107024] scsi host0: uas

The used kernel is:
uname -a:

On all other RPi's 4 and 5 I'm using I had no issue with this portable SSD.

Below the dmesg log of another RPi 5, successfully mounting the SSD:

A difference between both logs is the position of this line:
sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0

But it's not clear for me if this has any meaning.

Before documenting this mounting error I had used the same standard RPi OS kernel on both RPi 5, but got still this error.

How to debug this error?
