Um, sorry, false alarm. After completely clearing out my SD card, and
making sure there were no left over recycle bin or hidden files, I tried
it all again and it worked. Looks like just stupid user error on my
part :-(
(I do wonder if there was a more subtle explanation in the VFAT
filesystem on the sd card, where the Nuvi may only read the DOS 8.3
short filename. I wonder if there is a scenario where one might copy a
file to the card and then rename it, ending with a long name of
gmapsupp.img and a short name of GMAPSU~1.IMG or something. Always
looking for someone to blame other than me :-)
Thanks for everyone's advice anyways!
