My first impressions without code review:

What works:

• attach/detach stick to port 0 or 1
• putting stick into player inventory
• mounting/unmounting stick
• explore filesystem on stick
• adding files to the stick via addFile Module

What doesn't work:

• If I have multiple sticks, I can't tell them apart. Something like the numbers for TFAR radios would help, or if we could use the ACE renaming feature, but this would need to enable ACE3 cargo for the stick. If there are a lot of sticks in the mission this could lead to a confusion.
• Manpage and description for unmount and mount show the information for the find command.
• We can't add to or create files on the sticks. That limits a lot the possibilities. We really should add the cp command to allow copying files onto and from the usb stick. Perhaps we can add the output redirection via > and >> soon. This would be another solution.
• Script Error moving a file from laptop to stick, see screenshot
• Script Error moving a file from stick to laptop, see screenshot
• Script Error unmounting stick while still in the stick filesystem and then executing ls command, see screenshot
• Script Error accessing ACE3 Interaction menu of laptop, see screenshot (only in dedicated mp)

What is weird:

• After attaching the stick to the laptop you can see for a very short moment the flipping/rotation of the stick; it's the same behavior for both slots
• The command for unmounting filesystems on linux is called "umount", not "unmount", see here: https://linux.die.net/man/8/umount
• Didn't we talked about renaming the pbo to something different? I can't remember the ideas, but I think it was something like "wearables" or "attachables".
• I would change USB0, USB1 etc. to lowercase. Everything else is lowercase, too. This was my first mistake trying to mount with lowercase. The missing man page lead to gueswork.

Next I will take a look at your code and comment it like usual.

I'm pretty shure, these are bugs in mvObj code

In theory this is already implemented in mvObj. There is only an os command missing.

I could only reproduce this in editor mp.

I would like to introduce a command, to list the available interfaces.

Sounds like a good idea.
