Summary: Bad image file locks up Kodak dc240

Initial Comment:
This is a rather unusual situation, but I thought I

would mention it since the effects are so annoying.



In some cases the Kodak dc240 can create an invalid

image file.  (I did this by accident the first time,

but I can make it

happen consistently by taking a picture, then removing the

batteries while the image is being processed).  If you

attempt

to view this image using the camera's LCD, it says

"Unrecognized picture format."  If you attempt to read

this image with gphoto2 (including the command line

application) the transfer fails, and the camera locks

up - it ignores all buttons including the power switch.

 The only way recover

is remove the batteries.

I'm afraid to say that we can't fix it. The problem is that

the firmware seems to attempt to read the file whenever you

download it. This occured to me already.
