In fact, I was bitten once by corruption because the _unmount_ operation was interrupted mid-write. Not that surprising considering it's a much less tested scenario on fs code.
- yjftsjthsd-h 4y agoOkay, that hadn't occurred to me. I did wonder if mounting was a problem, if VFAT has "last mounted time" or other metadata that gets written per-mount.
- AshamedCaptain 4y agoEven VFAT has to clear the dirty flag when you unmount it; other filesystems will similarly write the superblock or do something with the journal.
