Michael, I have never seen that in my 1000's of AstLinux reboots, but granted I try not to "pull the plug" either. :-)
Possibly (no doubt) typing "sync" from the command line after you finished making changes would have made the difference. Another thing to consider during persistent storage setup (setup.php) is whether to place your /mnt/kd/ on unionfs (ASTURW) or as a separate native ext2 partition. Personally I've always been a fan of using a separate partition with a belief there is less overhead then via unionfs. Possibly unionfs caches the writes more than a native /mnt/kd/ partition would ? I did a quick test and my HDD light flickers every time I do a "Save Settings" from the web interface. Though I find it odd that you made several changes and none of them made it to persistent media.
