It is a bit weird, yes. I may have to get the vfat module to dump more 
information about the volume format to see what goes wrong.

I'm happy to do that. Can you please specify what parameters (logical sector 
size, number of sectors per cluster) the partitions were generated with? I'd 
like to compare that with what the vfat module figures out from the disk image.

Yup - did AHDI use particular values for logical sector size and sectors per 
cluster that we'd need to make sure will still work?
