Try reading a byte at a time using cbm_read() and ending the read when  
cbm_read() returns 0.  Or, use cbm_read to read the maximum number of bytes  
readable and use the returned value to state the size of used memory.  CBM  drives 
don't record the exact size of a file.  Instead, they record the  number of 
sectors that a file uses.  That is 254 bytes per sector plus 2  bytes to either 
point to the next sector or record the number of bytes in the  last sector.
