This happened to me as well, on drives where I had written a DVD .iso image. The DVD image would still mount, even though there was nothing there, after I repartitioned and reformatted.
I used "wipefs" on the device to clean out the old file system tags. All of them. Then repartition, reformat, and only the active partition showed up.
Maybe some experimentation would allow for a "wipefs" command that only wiped the "macUSBdrive" tags, but I didn't spend that much time on it.
Curt-
Thanks, that's a trail I can follow. I have afew older sticks I could use for testing- I'll report if I find something.
