Mounting USB flash disk synchronously

[Florian Schroeck]

Hi,
i don't know if this is useful at all, just an idea:
create a file, same size as your USB disk (with dd)
mount it as a loop dev
put this and the USB disk in a RAID0 md dev

ehm, i just realized, it's no problem for a flash dev, but i think you 
meant a USB hard disk, don't you? :>

bye
Florian
