I know, that's how I read it the first time. What I meant is,
sometimes in the past
you removed it unsafely and corrupted the file system. That corruption has not been resolved and is still there.
This is what I
guess
is happening:
Upon plugging the N900 to a PC, the OS unmounts the MyDocs partition and presents it to the PC
Upon removing from USB, the OS tries to mount the MyDocs partition again
It fails due to the corruption and runs fsck
The corruption is probably not serious and fsck does not find any problems
The mount then succeeds
Please keep in mind that I have no proof, only a hunch. Pasting the result of the fsck here might help.
I am also taking a wild guess that you have not lost any data, is that right? If so, then the easiest option would be to copy everything to a safe place, format the partition, copy everything back. Alternatively, you can try this:
