Hi Joseph,

the box has been processing torrents and my usual work without any occurance of the problem, so I suspect the problem to be a regression from 3.2 to 3.5. My kernel is currently 3.2.0-31.

What I tried so far on 12.10:
I've tried to set the ide_generic-setting at boottime as described in the harddrive debugging page[1], which did not change the behavior of setting my root partition and/or home partition to readonly mode.

Also, the mount-output shows the partitions as read-write-mount, although they are set to readonly. Both partitions are formatted to ext4 and I have to run fsck on pretty much every boot.

Best Regards,
Lars
