Ok, so this is a new patch; this time, it's next to the toggle for expert
button.
I do a new device check, in a separate variable and check with device file as
unique; if there's one that isn't in the old list. (or if it's changed size).
in that case i put the new entry into the old list.
however, it seems that a VM shuts itself off on executing the check when a new
USB disk was added. :-(
Maybe i'm doing some fundamentals wrong, so i'm asking here if anyone has an
insight, idea or direction i should go to instead.
i'm thinking because i only do 1 of the 5 preparation checks for new disks,
that maybe not everything is done correctly yet: but a halting VM is not
exactly what i expected...
