I tried NTFS/FAT/FAT32 quick format with my Debian and Windows XP
boxes and the latest tgt but I can't reproduce the crash.

Do you know what tgt version you use? You use the version shipped with
Fedora 7?

BTW, non quick format fails since VERIFY command fails. I added VERIFY
command support (though it's a fake). Try the latest git (or the
latest release).
