+One of my remotes, on a USB drive, is behaving exceedingly strangely. Files sometimes refuse to copy to it - whether I copy to it from my home annex, or whether I "cd" to that USB drive and try to "get" files to it.
+
+Note that the external HD is a FAT32 filesystem. This has never caused problems in the past, but I am wondering if some of the recent work on "crippled" filesystems might have caused breakage on existing repositories which had been working well on FAT32 filesystems?
+
+What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+On my annex, something like this:
+
+```
+Talislanta Books$ git annex whereis talislanta_fantasy_roleplaying.pdf
+whereis talislanta_fantasy_roleplaying.pdf (2 copies)
+ d16d0d1a-3cdd-11e2-9161-67c83599f720 -- homeworld
+ fa2bd02e-3ce2-11e2-a675-47389975a32e -- here (macbook)
+ok
+Talislanta Books$ git annex copy --to=toshiba talislanta_fantasy_roleplaying.pdf
+copy talislanta_fantasy_roleplaying.pdf ok

+Talislanta Books$
+```
+
+
+What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
+
+I should be able to copy files to my external hard drive, /Volumes/TOSHIBAEXT/annex
+
+
+What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+
+Talislanta Books$ git annex version
+git-annex version: 3.20130216
+local repository version: 3
+default repository version: 3
+supported repository versions: 3
+upgrade supported from repository versions: 0 1 2
+
+OS X 10.6 (lion)
+
+Please provide any additional information below.
+
+Most files are affected by this, a few are not. I don't see any pattern to which is which.
