It happens when weird things go on with USB devices. Removing and re-inserting is usually a good idea.

There are some significant limitations to all of the FAT filesystems. As you are probably using localization settings (ie. your language is not set to en-us), I would recommend not just copying your home directory to a FAT filesystem. Use tar and compression to preserve UTF-8 characters and permissions. When you copy things back from a FAT filesystem that meta data is lost. > > I tried the shred command, chmod ;) and much more esoteric tricks on > Suse and 64 Studio without success. >
