Suspend didn't resume properly so I was forced to power off the frozen

Booting got stuck on fsck which gave me a heart attack. I recovered with a

Why can't Linux always survive power outages? I would think this is common.
I can't imagine everyone would know to use Knoppix.
I've seen Windows machines that get abused and improperly shutdown all the
time. They always seem to recover.
In a lot of cases, Windows silently trashes the affected files.
Don't blame Linux for *reporting* the fact that something went wrong
rather than just blasting things. In addition, lost+found often offers
a "second chance" in many cases that Windows will not.
If you care, mount synchronously.
