HDToolBox is not mine. That is where the intelligence is needed.

Joanne,
Martin's boot log (including your patch) says:
Jun 19 21:19:09 merkaba kernel: [ 7891.843284] sdb: RDSK (512) sdb1
(LNX^@)(res 2 spb 1) sdb2 (JXF^D)(res 2 spb 1) sdb3 (DOS^C)(res 2 spb
4)
Jun 19 21:19:09 merkaba kernel: [ 7891.844055] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb]
Attached SCSI disk
so it's indeed a case of self inflicted damage (RDSK (512) means 512
byte blocks) and can be worked around by using a different block size.
Well I pretty much believe that this was the standard block size of the
tool I used in order to create the RDB. I think it has been Media
Toolbox + the engine behind it, from AmigaOS 4.0 (not 4.1) or so. DOS-
Type JXF points to JXFS, an AmigaOS 4 only filesystem that meanwhile has
been deprecated by AmigaOS upstream.
Maybe HDToolbox + hdwrench.library by Joanne (AmigaOS 3.5/3.9) would
have set it up differently.
Anyway: It works like this in AmigaOS 4 without any issues. With 512
Byte Blocks. I think it is good that Linux does not create data
corruption when writing to disks that work just fine in AmigaOS.
Especially as those using AmigaNG machines like AmigaOne X1000/X5000 or
Acube Sam machines may dual boot AmigaOS and Linux on their machines.
Thanks again for putting together a patch.
Thanks,
