>Description:
kernel refuses to handle 2GB secure digital cards correctly.
2GB (transcend 150x, fwiw) inserted into SD slot in 4-slot card reader;
attaching card reader yields:

umass0: SMSC 223 USB97C223, rev 2.00/1.95, addr 3
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <SMSC 223 U HS-CF 1.95> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device 
da0: 40.000MB/s transfers
da0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present
da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 1
da1: <SMSC 223 U HS-MS 1.95> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device 
da1: 40.000MB/s transfers
da1: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present
da2 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 2
da2: <SMSC 223 U HS-SM 1.95> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device 
da2: 40.000MB/s transfers
da2: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present
da3 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 3
da3: <SMSC 223 U HS-SD/MMC 1.95> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device 
da3: 40.000MB/s transfers
da3: 1962MB (2009600 1024 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 125C)

Note that card is detected correctly as da3 (and also da3s1 pops up in /dev).

Trying to access da3s1 (mount_msdosfs) yields:

g_vfs_done():da3s1[READ(offset=512, length=4096)]error = 22

Also fdisk seems to go through something similar:
# fdisk da3
fdisk: could not detect sector size

# fdisk-linux -b 1024 /dev/da3

Unable to read /dev/da3

The card works fine in the same card reader under WinME (sorry...) and also works fine in the DigiMate II-plus for copying its contents to external storage and also works fine in two digital cameras (and, yes, as 2GB).
>How-To-Repeat:
Plug in said 2GB SD card and try to access it
