I think this could be a dangerous situation. My camera has an internal
memory (11Mb), which is not accessible if a memory card is used. If I
connect the camera with the memory card, /proc/partitions sees 62592
blocks (for a 64Mb card). If I disconnect the camera, /proc/partitions
doesn't change. If I reconnect the camera, but without the memory card,
/proc/partitions still says /dev/sda has 62592 blocks, while it should
be 11264.

Other utilities like updfstab (comes with Red Hat distro's), which
search the computer for mountable devices, also report /dev/sda1 can be
mounted, while it can't.

So I think this is not the way it is supposed to work... I would expect
the computer to go back in the state it was before I connected the
camera.

Greetings,

Jan Fabry
