Hi Shaun, It's usually left as a registered scsi device. If you cat /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/0
(numbers might be different), then you should see something that says whether it is attached or not. If it does think it's still attached, then you're right that something is messed up. If a second, different, usb stick is plugged in, it'll come up as /dev/sdb instead. This is why we had that nasty bunch of steps I mentioned before to find which device it is.
