Wow. That's almost the exact same environment I am running under, except
my Linux testing DomU's are 64 bit. Thanks so much for confirming that.
I guess I'll try with another USB stick...

I wrote a tiny wrapper around the usb_init_xs.sh which simply unbinds
the device from whatever driver it is currently bound to (normally
usb-storage in my case) and then binds it to usbback. Yours looks pretty
nifty though :)
