This was due to the way the sd driver sent commands to the device; it 
always used a 10-byte CDB.  Some older devices _Really_ don't like this.  
I committed a change after 1.1 that makes the sd driver use a 6-byte CDB 
if the request will fit, and added an sdminphys() to guarantee that the 
request would fit if a device was flagged as "ancient".  This pretty much 
made the problem go away, as far as I can tell...
