That reminds me.  I've a 1 GiB flash USB drive.  It has a bright LED
that blinks off on accesses.  On `pumount /media/ralphs-usb' it flushes
some writes, blinking the light, and unmounts yet the light then stays
on.

However, on friends' machines running MS Windows on doing the `safely
remove ...' option (whatever it is) the light goes off and stays off.

I think that's good.  It helps confirm it's ready to pull out.  Do
others experience this difference?

Cheers,


Ralph.
