Hi All,

Since there are loads of technical people on this list, I figure I'll ask
here, since I've had little success elsewhere..

I bought a Sandisk Cruzer (USB adapter for SD memory cards).  I took it home
and I plugged it in.  FreeBSD found it and I was able to mount it.

Here's the catch - it's mounting read-only.

So I figured I'd boot into Windows (2k) and see if it behaved any
differently, with no luck.

I've found that once every 10 or 15 times I plug it in I'm able to mount it
r/w..

I'm hesistant to force a r/w mount since i may lose data (what's causing the
r/w mount to fail in the first place?)..

Is anybody else having hassles or am I alone?

Any input would be appreciated..

Cheers

--george
