Q1) Any Linux dmesg as you try to read or umount?

P.S. The subscriber-only archives of linux_udf@xxxx currently show
Linux-2.6.5 issues now under discussion, including an issue people have
reproduced by downloading a huge trial .exe into Windows and then
copying a file of more than 2 GiB to the disc.
