I had the same problem. The second media works, the first got screwed up? I can't reproduce the problem now.
The media gets destroyed after partitioning and running mke2fs. I can't believe it myself - but have no other explanation.
When the media was broken I got: <7>VFS: Disk change detected on device ide0(3,64) <6> /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0:<7>LDM: DEBUG (ldm.c, 877): validate_partition_table: Found basic MS-DOS partition, not a dynamic disk. <4> p1 p2 p3 p4 <7>VFS: Disk change detected on device ide0(3,65) <6> /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0:<7>LDM: DEBUG (ldm.c, 877): validate_partition_table: Found basic MS-DOS partition, not a dynamic disk. <4> p1 p2 p3 p4 [and so on with funny device numbers up to 3,93]
cat /proc/partitions 3 64 98288 ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/disc 3 65 272218546 ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/part1 3 66 269488144 ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/part2 3 67 699181456 ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/part3 3 68 10668 ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/part4
Note: a new media has NO partition - it's a floppy. Now is it possible that the media gets destroyed if the hardware tries to seek to illegal positions?
