[Bug 1424062] Re: Disk suddenly became unaccesible (all of it)

 

Next time this happens, please check "dmesg", and record it. You could
e. g. put it onto an USB stick, or copy it to a remote host with
something like

 $  dmesg | sudo tee /run/dmesg.txt
 $ scp /run/dmesg.txt user@some.server:

It for sure sounds like what Philip said, the disk getting mounted read-
only due to file system corruption.

Title:
  Disk suddenly became unaccesible (all of it)

Status in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My apologies for the lack of information, but I could not report this
  bug until I restarted my computer.  I suddenly could only use my
  programs already loaded in memory. There was no way to  write anything
  on disk. Trying to open a program from the terminal would crash-close
  the terminal if the program required to write to disk. Chrome didn't
  allow downloads. OpenOffice wouldn't let me save documents. At restart
  I got a message that /tmp was unaccesible, I chose the "F" (fix)
  option and it got solved. But I lost a lot of files due to this issue.
