Description: This service menu allows you to copy files or folders directy to your pendrive (USB memory key) or to a floppy disk! When the operation is complete, unity umounting is performed.
This is based on http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=18406
It is recommended a recent version of the Kernel, which sees pendrives as /dev/sda or /dev/sda1.
If you have a SCSI/SATA harddisk, the system will set your pendrive to /dev/sdb or /dev/sdb1. So, in this case, you must uncomment the last line of the files and comment the previous.
To install, just unzip the files(and set permissions if necessary) to $KDE/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus as root.

"Flash Drive". This "pen drive", "key", "thumb drive" stuff is annoying. Cool idea btw.
This works for Linux only. Drive names under BSD, Solaris, etc., will be different.
Yes, this is true! Can someone post here the pendrive names under other unices variants which run KDE? Thanks!
On my System (Kanotix, a Debian-derivat) USB-devices are on /dev/sdax respectively /dev/sdbx. /dev/hda is my first harddisc!
Yes... The discription is fixed now. Thanks.
