Always: bs=4096 (the size of an erase block).
Yeah, there is a fuse layer that the user sees over the actual file system (at: /mnt/base-us IIRC)
No telling what the results of a mount on top of that would be.
I highly recommend rescue pack + coward's rescue pack (add-on to RP) - that will give you ssh/telnet into the diags system if the main system chokes up.
And/or a serial port connection.
PS: Maybe not quite so big, so the system has room for bookmarks, annotations, and book indices (all on that same fat-32 file system).
Note: In the (distant) past, people have split the single partition user storage into two (or more) partitions.
Older devices, much older firmwares.
That might be another way to consume the space in a way that the system "thinks' there isn't any room left in the root of the file system.
