Hi All,

If I have a virtual machine running and I insert a
flash drive into a USB socket, the virtual machine
steels the flash drive from the host, not that it
will actually work in the VM, which they don't.
To get them to work in my VM's I have to add them
as a piece of hardware to my configuration, then
they work.
Oh, BTW, I forgot to add that I just installed an F31 system under qemu and I didn't
have to do anything
to use a flash drive in the VM. The host system is also F31.

The USB drive happens to have been labeled "FLASH" and was auto mounted by
GNOME.
