The kernel likes to write to files to keep track of things and also to
log files.  For example, it might be adding it to the list of mounted
filesystems in /etc/mtab, or writing a message to a log file to say
that it found the device (on my machine messages about usb devices go
to /var/log/dmesg and /var/log/kern.log).
