You're right. I should have said "immediately after". If there had been a sleep or a reboot in between, it would have been something different.

I typically side load news articles once a day for offline reading at lunch.

And I specifically remember ejecting and then waiting for the home screen to pop up before unplugging. Too bad I wasn't paying attention enough to see that it didn't do the import right then.

For me, I the import has happened each time. The interesting thing is that a couple of times, it has reimported a lot more books. I haven't been able to work out why it chose the books it did. It did show the books, but, wouldn't do much else. But, rebooting and it was all OK.

I don't see that in linux unless I actively look for it.

Your diagnosis of the kobo mounting it read only after eject from the pc sounds about right. I'm just super glad I didn't have a corrupt database to deal with. Maybe I need to go back to rebooting after I eject.

I have been checking by telnet-ing in and doing a test. But, that's while I'm trying to reproduce it. I haven't had the "luck" to catch it when I have been completely sure of what had been done in the lead up to it.
