As far as I know WinXP has no equivalent of Debian's "mount by
label"
etc.
WinXP assigns a drive letter based on how many drives it has
discovered.
I see no way automatically associate a particular drive letter
with
a particular flash drive absolutely.

It should be possible to assign specific drive letters to
specific drives. The following is based on Vista, but I gather it
should be similar on XP:
- From Control Panel in Classic view, open Administrative Tools
then Computer Management.
- In the left-hand pane, under "Storage" select "Disk Management".
- Right-click the drive in the right-hand pane and select "Change
Driver Letter and Paths".
- Click "Change", choose letter, then click OK.

If you pick a letter towards the end of the alphabet, you'll
minimise the chance of Windows automatically assigning the same
letter to another removable drive. Then each time you insert that
drive, it should always get the same letter.

As Sgt. Schultz might say "Interesting....VERY interesting".
I've been a Windows user since the days of 3.1 and never came across that.
Thank you.


Just don't go changing the letter of the drive Windows is
installed on!


Who? Me? <owl ducks fer cover ;>
