Public bug reported: Confirmed in two Edgy installations: 32 bits ABIT AN832X SLI motherboard, and x86_64 HP xw9300 (TYAN K8W3 motherboard).
If I copy a big file from command-prompt to USB stick, and then go to the icon and select "Safely Remove", the USB stick will immediately unmount, instead of popping up a dialog like it did in Dapper. Even worse, the directory entry for the file is written (the file shows as full size), but the file will of course be truncated, causing corruption on the disk. Please Fix !!! In Dapper, when I copied a big file from the console prompt, and rapidly went to the desktop icon and selected Safely Remove, a dialog box will pop-up saying something like "waiting...". Then it will dissapear and my copy and unmount will be complete. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Edgy corrupts USB memory stick - both i386 and x86_64 https://launchpad.net/bugs/78226 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
