That's a completely different issue.... Everyone thougfht this is
about using USB drivers under Wine...

Wine doen't currently allow Windows USB drivers...

It should work with ?USB disk though... (It might be sensitive to the
filesystem though, since the Linux filesystem drivers doesn't seem to
support the same features on all filesystems) That shouldn't change
between versions, especially not between RCs....
