>Description:
 when I inssert a Sankisk Sansa mp3 player into a USB port I get the
 following message on the console
 umass0 at uhub5 port 4 configuration 1 interface 0
 umass0: SanDisk APIC SanDisk Sansa m230, rev 2.00/2.25, addr 3
 umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
 scsibus1 at umass0: 2 targets, 1 lun per target
 sd0 at scsibus1 target 0 lun 0: <SanDisk, Sansa m230, 1.30> disk
 removable
 sd0: fabricating a geometry
 sd0: 633 GB, 482 cyl, 64 head, 32 sec, 688144 bytes/sect x 987840
 sectors

 When I try disklabel /dev/sd0 the machine crashes, i.e I loose control
 of the terminal and mouse and have to do a hard reboot.

 The device is 256meg not 633gig as per the fabricated geometry.    
 I can use the device on Unbutu and XP.
>How-To-Repeat:
   As above
>Fix:
    I do not have a work around.
