VirtualBox and the USB flash drive -

VirtualBox defaults to using the CDROM/DVD drive which is pretty 
worthless unless you have a supply of blanks, I don't have many on hand 
presently. I have been trying to make the USB function work without much 
success.

Googling suggests group/user problems, I have bobg and root listed as 
vboxusers.
The GUI has a USB menu which is always grayed, where I can create a 
filter, it recognizes the Sandisk flash drive when entered, I click on 
OK and nothing is saved apparently.

Now I've run across something in google that suggests an entry in fstab 
may be required?

Has any one worked through this maze who can tell me how to make it work?

Bob
