Since vol_id is supposed to run only when the device is plugged in, this probably is not related to it. But what is causing that error is not clear. What does "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" show, and what does /proc/partitions contain? > After several tests filling the mp3 player and deleting and so on this > error message seems to show up when the real damage is done to the > filesystem. It's suspicious that the block number is so close to the end of the partition. It could be that you have filled the device up completely, or that it claims to have more sectors than it really does have.
