Here's the information on the specific devices I'm trying this with.
I'm beginning to suspect a faulty stick, or maybe one that just doesn't
work reliably with the way Linux accesses it (?). The type that fails
(I have several of that model here) also gives some errors from "lsusb -v"
(see below for details).
I have another completely different brand/model of 2GB stick here
that has now been confirmed to NOT have any such issues.
Perhaps the USB experts here could comment on the differences
in information they report from lsusb --> maybe it's somethere there
that makes one of them fail, and the other one work?
