If you install BackupMenu

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get install backupmenu

you can activate USB mass storage mode using it.
Restart the device once it's installed.
During the load up a couple of errors will show up about some now unnecessary files so press enter twice.
Once BackupMenu is up just press w and you should be able to access the drives on your pc.

Edit: Restart the device with the keyboard open.
While you're in BackupMenu you can make a full rootfs and optfs backup which you could then restore in another unit should you get one. These backups can be found in the MyDocs/systemBackups directory.
