I have a Kanguru 128MB USB Flash Drive, and under OS X it mounts 2 icons on my desktop when I use it, one with the name that I assigned to the drive, and one that says "Unlabeled"..I can't seem to get rid of that unlabeled portion of the drive. Its about 1.5MB of space. I've tried using disk utlilty, but nothing seems to get rid of that partition. Its really more a pain in the ass than a problem, but I'd like to get rid of it if anyone has any suggesitons....

Same problem. It turns out it is some Windows thing. I think the boot volume (?). You will only see 1 drive in OS 9 and in Windows.

It is funny that older 128 Kangurn drives did not have this problem. But the new ones do.
Yes, I know I could buy a PC, but why?
