Thanks for the explanations. I'm still a bit confused about how I'm meant to
use the python api though. If I don't mount the file system with 'sudo
/opt/owfs/bin/owfs --allow_other -u /root/EEPROM......./' then when I go
straight to python and do the usual set up:
import ow
ow.init('u')

The file system isn't mounted i.e. os.listdir('/root/EEPROM......./') comes
up empty. So I still can't access the EEPROM from the file system. Is there
a way to remove an instance without removing the file structure? I've used
'fusermount -u /root/EEPROM...../' from both inside python (using subprocess
to get at the terminal) and in the terminal directly, but that removes the
whole file system. 

Is it worth dropping owfs and just going straight to owserver? I didn't
think I'd need owserver because the BBB only has one USB and I was going to
place multiple EEPROMs on the same bus using just 1 USB adapter.
