Sometimes the file system on the partition becomes corrupted due to bad unmount, try to fix (needs rootsh installed)
Code:
sudo gainroot
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
This might actually give an error, if the device is not mounted in the first place, you could ignore this.
Code:
fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs
Hope it cures your filesystem. Please post here if any more errors occur.

Code:
sudo umount /home/user/MyDocs
sudo fsck.vfat -y /dev/mmcblk0p1
If that doesn't work

Code:
sudo umount /home/user/MyDocs
sudo mkfs.vfat -L N900 /dev/mmcblk0p1

Do use the code Hurrian gave you, if you have the package 'sudser' installed.
If you have rootsh installed do http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...93&postcount=2

You better have one of them installed to get your data back.

If, however, you have no data, that is important for you the easiest is to format the card from the Hildon File Manager. But you better be sure to not lose any data in this process.

Please copy the whole output of the commands to look for the error. Also please run
Code:
mount
sudo gainroot
sfdisk -l
and try to copy and paste the whole output of the commands.

Wow! This is timely. I just discovered something similar today on my N900. I couldn't find my files on my micro sd card. To check I tried to read some of the files on a pc but several of them are corrupted. I think I must have corrupted the files when I took the micro sd out of my wife's nook tablet. (I had transfered photos to it.) Luckily I had them all backed up.
