   I have a 2Gig SD card. When I put it in my PDA it shows 1206MB free of   
   1934MB.   
      
   However, when I mount it and try to copy a 700MB file to it, after about   
   350MB have been copied I get the error:   
      
   Could not write file /foo/baa.zip.   
   Disk full.   
   [OK]   
      
   I've set KSysGuard up to show "Partition Usage/media/sdd1/Fill Level" and,   
   lo and behold, it shows that my card is nearly full rather than having   
   1.2Gig free as it should.   
      
   Why is my system unaware of all the spare space on this SDCard?   
   If it helps, the line in fstab which mounts it is:   
   /dev/sdd1 /media/sdd1 vfat users,uid=claire,gid=users,noauto,umask=000 0 0
