    I have a desktop and 2 laptops running Linux and a microslop surface running win10. The surface has one job, run Pioneer Rekordbox so I can analyse tracks for my DJ decks. I can get Rekordbox running on bottles, but no usb pass-through means I can't format and populate the usb to stick in the decks. Tried in a VM and WinBoat, but it refuses to run on a VM.
