I am using custom board with wp7607 module. When I type

> `swiflash -m wp76xx -r`

and plug USB flash into board, after board reboots, USB flash doesn’t show in _ **/dev/** _ folder. It will get recognized as **/dev/sda1** only after I unplug the board from power supply and than plug it back on. Simply typing

`reboot`

doesn’t solve the problem.  
What is the difference between these two types of restarts?  
Is there something I can do so USB flash gets recognized with reboot command?

are you using MangOH red board?  
I tried here, no problem is found for WP7607 on MangOH red board.  
When I inserted the USB thumb drive, it can always detect.

Have you also checked if this is related to power issue?

Is that if you burn the offical cwe FW, no problem is found for the USB flash enumeration?

best case is that you try on mangOH red board to see if this is hardware related.
