Qubes 3.2rc3-testing (and earlier), AMD Athlon X2, GeForce motherboard, NVidia MCP61 USB controller:
I'm currently running Qubes from an external USB drive. (Moving to internal drive as soon as I figure out how to smoothly migrate it.) For now, it works great in general. In the meantime, I've noticed the odd corruption where the root drive flips into R/O mode (and the system obviously becomes useless). A reboot, fsck, reboot gets me back on track, usually with just a journal recovery, sometimes with the odd recovered inode/count of some recently created files. (No major file corruption yet, thankfully.) I believe one thing that seems to kick in this problem, is plugging/unplugging *other* USB devices (on same USB bus). It seems to sometime upset existing USB drives. Has anyone else experienced this? The next time it happens, I'll post some logs. I think it's fairly reproducable. I'm scanning through some old USB drives tomorrow, so I'm sure it will re-occur, and I'll post some more details. Thanks.
