Subject: [gentoo-user] VirtualBox, Gentoo, and USB thumb drives
Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2010 23:10:13 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100119231013.73d8a865@osage.osagesoftware.com> (raw)
I've been using VirtualBox recently with 32-bit Ubuntu for a work
project. It seems that whenever my thumb drive is moved between host and
guest operating system, Gentoo is mounts it as a new device (see
below). Can these extra device mounts be avoided?
Regards,
David
