All this sounds reasonable except that when I connect the Glo to my Win 8.1 machine it objects, but if I connect it to my XP machine it doesn't. If there was some "stuck bit" then surely it should show up on both.

The other point is that when I connect the Glo it isn't as though it is actually a drive - an area of memory is being exposed as a drive by the Linux USB Mass Storage Gadget running on the Glo. The file system exposed will be re-created with each reboot of the Glo so any foolishness with "stuck bits" should disappear.

Whatever is happening XP doesn't know about it 8.1 does.
