I was working on a program that searches out for all block devices in the
system via /sys (kernel is currently 2.6.12-rc5).  I needed to tell the
difference between a usb floppy and other usb disk devices (If possible, I'd
like to beable to also differentiate between flash and disk).  I tried the
interface file that's in /sys/block/<device>/device/../../../
Unfortunately, it's not reliable.  I tried a floppy from a dell system which
this file does not exist.

Another question (not related, not worth a seperate message either), is it
possible to detect a usb2.0 device plugged into a usb1.1 port?
