After having copied a bunch of files to your thumb drive, finder is usually still busy after the screen says the process is done. You can verify this by inserting the thumb drive so that it mounts, and then ejecting it. You may find that in that case, you only have to eject just once. If that is true, then you know the cause of your problem. Smart drive under dos did the same thing, and windows does it that way too, at least by default, as far as my experience goes. Hth, Paul.
