It was only broken in the sense that it requires you to get out a keyboard and manually continue to a root prompt and type `fsck` (and then Y a bunch of times) and presumably some files may have been corrupted but i haven’t seen any.
For a router I’d much prefer that it comes up on its own after I lose power, but the system isn’t totally broken or anything. It’s happened probably 3 times in the last year or so.
To another commenter saying it’s crazy to not run a UPS with your router: this is residential. 99% of people don’t have a UPS for their router. They probably don’t even have a separate router and all and just use an all in one modem/router/wifi combo. None of these people are crazy, they’re just not made of money and a UPS is expensive. IMO it’s more crazy to not have a journaled file system in this day and age, no other systems have issues with sudden power loss at my house.
