then; I guess it got lost in the noise by now. So, patiently retrying
again.
For the purposes of automatically testing udisks and gvfs automounting

"remov
Add "removable" module parameter to set the "removable" attribute of any
subsequently created debug block device. It is a writable driver option, so
that you can switch between removable and "fixed" media block devices in
between the add_host calls.
This is useful for being able to test the differ
