It happens with multiple memory sticks as well:

Partition 1 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
phys=(0, 1, 1) logical=(0, 0, 33)
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(254, 31, 33) logical=(484, 27, 5)
And here's another oddity:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/kubuntu-default-settings# mkfs -t vfat /dev/sdb1
mkfs.vfat 2.11 (12 Mar 2005)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/kubuntu-default-settings# fdisk -l /dev/sdb

Why does it get the partition type wrong?

Automount of memory sticks doesn't work; wrong defaults also
