[wellylug] unmounting versus stopping usb storage

[Bill Christiansen]

I have a cellphone with a Kingston 512MB microSD card. It works fine as a
usb storage device under linux and I always unmount the drive before
unplugging the usb cable but the phone still complains that it was not
"stopped" before disconnecting and that the memory card may be damaged. I'm
assuming it's just missing a signal from Windows telling it, it was stopped
and that no real harm can come as it was properly unmounted...?
