 I did try setting the clock lower, (e.g., sd_max_clk=500, even 
 250), but that didn't help.

Keep going to 1/5 of the last value.  Does that help?  A 2GB card I bought 
was only stable at about that clock rate.

At 1/2 of that last value, I think it sometimes worked, just not during 
heavy I/O; that's why I use the word stable.

 Confirmed, bad disk--can't read it with anything else (and in fact,
 trying to read it on my Ubuntu system puts sd_mod into a state where
 it won't read another disk).


Had that  before, too : In case you do not have a backup of the MBR, there
is a (windows) tool from panasonic ( SD-Format or sth. like that) that could
restore mine to a point where formatting worked again.
