Comment (by Don Quixote):
The problem I had with getting VirtualBox to use a physical USB stick as a
drive for the guest was that I did not have permission to read or write
/dev/sdb on Linux. I needed to add my user to the vboxusers group, "chgrp
vboxusers /dev/sdb" then re-create the virtual drive VMDK file.
Also after adding myself to the vboxusers group I needed to log out and
back in again.
