You believe wrongly. While it is unfortunate that my original problem report has no line breaks, I did write that a umount -f on the device node after pulling the USB plug did NOT help. I HAD to delete and manually recreate the device node, before I could mount the USB stick again. This is the main issue. -- Jonas Nagel <fireball@zerouptime.ch>
