Public bug reported:
I am using Hardy Beta.
After copying a file to FAT32 partition, I reboot into Windows to access
the file. The file is missing, then a reboot back to Ubuntu will find
that the file also does not exist anymore in Ubuntu.
To compare, if, after copying a file to FAT32 partition i instead reboot
back to Ubuntu Hardy, the file is still there.
The sharing partition has files from January, therefore I suspect that the
situation was okay upto Ubuntu Alpha 3.
To troubleshoot, i have run "chkdsk /f" from Windows before performing the
above file copy.
As a reference, this is the mount info (mounted by hal):--
/dev/sda6 on /media/12_5SHARE type vfat (rw, nosuid, nodev, uhelper=hal,
shortname=mixed, uid=1000, utf8, umask=077,flush)
I have also tried mounting the disk via:-
sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda6 /media/sda6
