I’m not sure if I can buy one from Amazon directly because I’m neither

Still thanks for your recommendation, it’s very valuable for me.

Replace Amazon with "trusted store" in your country who does not sell
counterfeit products. (So, do not buy SD card from eBay, DealExtreme, etc.)

I’ve just purchased a SanDisk 16GB Micro SD card but it’s not class
6 as stated before but class 4, actually. I expect it to arrive on
Monday January 9th, it means tomorrow.<br>

It is attached inside a ZIP file. This module is only for use with stock

If your card was affected by this bug, hopefully using this module will
now allow your card to work with no more corruption (after reformat).

Dear Paul, I tried your module. Everything went OK! … until I tried
to <tt>rsync</tt> everything from the card to an image file stored
in ~/MyDocs. I tried it twice and in both cases an unwanted reboot
and filesystem corruption occured, inspite that I ran <tt>rsync</tt>
with the <tt>nice -n 19</tt> prefix.<br>
I called <tt>rsync</tt> from a bash script with <tt>"sudo nice -n
19 <that_script>"</tt> actually. I suppose that every child
process inherits the niceness of <tt><that_script></tt>.<br>
<br>
But I also tried to perform a <tt>sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get
dist-upgrade</tt> before. That worked pretty good except that some
corruption was already present on the filesystem (after an fsck
repair) that didn’t allow the upgrade to finish. Next time I’ll try
on a fresh Debian partition.<br>
<br>
So it appears that:<br>
– the <tt>dist-upgrade</tt> seems to work <span
class="moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span> thank to the
fixed kernel module from you, Paul;<br>
– as the image file became involved (during an <tt>rsync</tt>
backup process), the reboot and corruption occured twice already <span
class="moz-smiley-s2"><span> :-( </span></span>; the image file
and the partition on the microSD card both became corrupt;<br>
– maybe I should <br>
<ol>
<li>forget about the image file for now, <br>
</li>
<li>concentrate myself on work with the microSD card partition,</li>
<li>use the image file as a read-only rescue backup solution and <br>
</li>
<li>back the system on the card up to another place than to the
mounted image file on my device, i. e. to my PC, or use <tt>dd</tt>
instead of <tt>rsync</tt>.<br>
</li>
</ol>
Anyway, other ideas to figure out what’s going on here? Why is my
N900 rebooting unexpectedly even when I am very <tt>nice</tt> to
it?<br>
<br>
Thank you, Paul and Michael, for your suggestions! I hope we’ll
finally find the way out of this weird story <span
class="moz-smiley-s3"><span> ;-) </span></span><br>
