The syslog above seems to have everything.
I looked at usbdebug-2.4.25-syslog. The computer does _not_ try to read sector 494080 when you mount the partition; no doubt that's why there's no problem. It's not clear to me why that sector _is_ read under 2.6.8. Maybe the partition table has gotten corrupted somehow. You could try backing up all the files from the camera, then wiping out the partition table and creating a new one. (You'll have to do this while running 2.4, obviously.) Maybe after that's done 2.6.8 will work okay. If it doesn't, send another debugging log from 2.6.8.
