This is with linux-image-2.6.19-7-generic 2.6.19-7.10 from Ubuntu edgy.
I get similar results with a home-brew 2.6.18-rc4.

Any mass storage quirk needed that might be missing?
That all seems normal, other than the unknown partition table, but the device might be all one unpartitioned disk.. at what point is it failing?

Mounting it just claims wrong FS type.  And I've tried most file systems
I can think of just to be sure.

Can you read the whole volume with 'dd'? If yes, you could provide
a hex dump of the first few sectors? Probably someone on this list will
recognize the format...
