Like mentioned in the other thread:

Do you use Amiga OS 3.1 or lower? If so, you should keep your partitions under 2 GB. OS 3.1 and lower have a limit of 2 GB per partition using FFS. Using larger partitions can cause weird errors, like the ones you are experiencing now.

If you want larger partitions, you should either use OS3.5/3.9 or another filesystem.
