Comment 415 for bug 88746

I have nowhere near enough knowledge of the linux kernel to make any kind of qualified statement on this - it is however, not going to stop me from doing it anyway...

I see two possible reasons:

a) An actual vfat error (linux's vfat code)
b) Due to different usage patterns, the vfat usage triggers a (timing?) error in the USB code

I am hoping that somebody with more technical insight can shed some light on this.

Can somebody else try with ext2/3 ? I can't myself, as I have no machines affected by this.
