Excuse the provocative subject line.
With Fedora 15, I start file browser from my list of of favorites. I use the browser to view the partitons on my computer, and one of the entries is my flash-drive in the USB port. I clicked on the Icon for the drive, saw that the contents were not what I needed, closed the window, and clicked on the option to eject the flash-drive. Wham, system halt, screen says panic, and the keyboard lights 1 and 3 are blinking in my face. The keyboard is not responsive and neither is the system. It takes a hard reset to reboot.
I was able to do this action consistently. There was no problem with Fedora 14, and there was no problem using the other file browser. Beware Nautilus 3.0,.2 and using it's menu item to eject a flash-drive.

Don't bother. There's a bunch of similar bugs already, it's almost certainly a dupe. I think the plan is going to be to push a .38 reverting a change to the scsi code that highlights these problems (thus papering over the actual bug) and then getting a .39 pushed out asap.
