Tested with ubuntu-7.10-rc-desktop-i386 on a Dell Inspiron 500m (Intel
pentium M, one of the three machines used in earlier test [1])

This time the affected USB2 flash drive |2] mounts only when present at
boot, not when connected later; while the non-affected drive [3] works
just fine including across multiple connect/auto-
mount/unmount/disconnect cycles.

Bottom line: the problem is worsened, now some USB Flash drives are
unusable when connected after boot; again it affects only certain Flash
drives.

I'm willing to snail-mail an affected Flash drive to someone feeling in
charge, and/or perform some kind of log to help diagnose the issue, that
I'm sure many casual users will experience, and hate.


[1] well, nearly: an HD is present when previously the machine was diskless, 
but I have no reson to think that it matters.
