I tried to update my E1 mk2 to the beta firmware but the USB disk was not detected on my Linux machine. It worked on a Windows machine.
When I tap on enable USB Disk I get the following logs on my system:

Normally a USB disk gets detected by the system and I can just browse it’s contents but the E1 doesn’t seem to be visible at in tools like gparted or the Gnome Disk Utility.
If I try to manually mount the drive then command just sits there:
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /e1
Eventually I can see this in my logs

I am running a fairly recent kernel:
