When trying to request the block size and disk size of CDs and DVDs, NT4 and W2K don't support the IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY ioctl. I changed the function which requests this data to try again using the native NT function NtQueryVolumeInformationFile, which seems to do the trick. Maybe that heals it for the USB drive as well? Please give the next developer snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ a try.
