Thanks. The Mac fs is aok. I tried running the disk utility also against the mounted Kindle disk but it gives different results (number of files) each time I verify/repair :-( I just chatted with the Amazon representative which will send a new unit and FWIW they advised AGAINST running the disk utility on the Kindle.
I hope this happened because of a HW malfunction and not some weird interaction between Calibre and the Paperwhite (the old Kindle NEVER EVER had any problems until the screen died after 2 years of honourable servce)
