I also confirmed that mounting vfat with the "usefree" option works
fine.
We introduced the "usefree" workaround in gutsy, and dropped it again in
hardy, since the kernel was fixed to not take ages to scan the disk
without "usefree" any more. This worked until 2.6.28 in Jaunty, and
regressed in 2.6.31 in Karmic again.
Kernel team, should I add the "usefree" workaround to the default vfat
mount option in dk-disks, or do you think it's easy and desirable to fix
that in the kernel proper?
