Due to design of my last two phones I can't confirm that thing
(hot-plug) hasn't been dropped, but my first phone could do this. With a
quirk -- screen must be lit, but I kept it in settings/storage section
anyway, because...

IIRC twice I've experienced same behaviour (sdcard was used as
transport, due phone being too old for The Modern Technologies(TM) (like
org.primftpd)).  First time I was frustrated but I've shortly learned
that fsck.vfat is Like A Charm(TM).  Also my old phone at least once did
that corruption just flying by.

What brings us to a question:  PeteCresswell, you're unmounting
removables before pulling, aren't you?

*CUT*

p.s.  What can I say, vfat -- braindead filesystem by design.
