I tried a bit further and got the following: I bought a new SD card with write protect tab and inserted is as followed:
SD Card, not write protected => Write Protect is on SD Card, write protected => Write Protect is on SD Card, not write protected => Write Protect is off MMC Card (the old one) => Write Protect is off Reboot Hardy alpha 5 MMC Card (the old one) => Write Protect is off Reboot Gutsy MMC Card (the old one) => Write Protect is off Well. Anything seems fine now. But I don't know why it didn't work and I don't know why it's working now. For me the bug could be closed; don't know for Kunjan Shah though.
