Hi all,

I am trying to write a script to do a "dd" to copy an image from a local
disk to a USB flash drive followed by copying some other files to the flash
drive. 

e.g. if the flash drive is d and mapped to /dev/sdb
    dd if=myfiles.iso of=/dev/sdb
    cd myfolder
    cp -rf */cygdrive/d


After dd and copy finishes, I eject the flash drive and reinsert to the USB
port. I found that some of the files are courrpted!

If I dd first, eject the USB flash drive then do the copying, it is okay.

Is there a way to automate this procedure without manually ejecting the
flash drive? Thank you.
