Hi. I'm running a Fox LX832 with the as-shipped kernel 

uname -a shows 

Linux foxbox 2.6.15 #9 PREEMPT Tue Jan 30 14:46:27 CET 2007 cris unknown

I have two 4Gb pen-drives mounted as vfat in the two USB ports

/dev/sda1              4022064     71836   3950228   2% /mnt/1
/dev/sdb1              4022064     80908   3941156   2% /mnt/2

I can ftp many small files (up to about 9Mbytes) to the file systems on
the USB pen-drives but any transfers larger than this crash the Fox hard
[orange status-LED on permanently, the green LED on the memory-stick
blinking, ssh session to Fox via ethernet unresponsive).

Only way to recover is to power-cycle the Fox.

Are there any known issues with USB write-speeds?

I have a 128Mb USB pen-drive (also vfat) which I am going to
test with.
