Yes, Entry E when selected on both linux and windows when connected to them shows no filesystem.

That would be something I could believe if it wasn't the exact same serial output I have been getting with the battery fully charged since the very first time I accessed serial. It was only low battery during that time of reading the serial because it had bootlooped itself so much and I didn't disconnect the battery. I always have it connected to power when using serial.

Also, through experimenting I found this, if usb device mode is selected and formatted on the PC, you can then place files on the usb drive as normal and if you disconnect and reconnect the USB quickly, the files do not disappear and they are fully intact to which I would assume the eMMC is still able to read/write. However, if the USB Device Mode is allowed to exit itself which is of course standard when removing the USB, it loses the filesystem again.
