Yes, same result here, local disk. 2GB card, system restore disabled, deleted something and I don't see recycle bin so the behavior is same like removable drive for me.

Looks like you need to add flag named removable when inserting
g_file_storage module. See http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.16/dr...file_storage.c for parameters. Tried to modify /usr/sbin/osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh in 770 with hacker edition and added 'removable' to line
Code:
exec chroot /mnt/initfs /sbin/insmod $DIR/g_file_storage.ko stall=0 removable file=/dev/mmcblk0
and it seems to work. Not sure if there are any further gotchas (i.e. why Nokia did not set it by default).
