I have very analogous experiencies.
It seems that cobdx = "\Device\HardDiskVolume." take their size
from maybe previously defined cobdx = file. When I had cca 110Meg
swap (file) and cca 300Meg /dev/hda8 (= \Device\HardDiskVolume7
;-( ) I've similar errors, without swap (means 1Gig partition =
file) seemd(!)  cobdx (=/dev/hda8) mounted work fine.
