Public bug reported:
Plug in external USB disk (single NTFS partition) --> go to nautilus -->
right click on volume name under 'Devices' section --> left click safely
remove drive. Screen freezes and system restarts after a few seconds.
Reproduced almost every time.
In two occasions the system switched to terminal mode reporting "Kernel
panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt 3.0.0-12-generic...".
However, I haven't been able to reproduce since.
Using "umount /dev/sdb1" in terminal (where 'sdb1' the USB disk) does
not cause the reported problem. The specific external USB disk has been
used in Maverick and Natty without issues.
Using another external USB disk (flash-based) and testing with both ext4
and NTFS partitions could not reproduce the problem.
