I mentioned probably the simplest thing: failing to unmount before
removal on a Windows machine. This sometimes causes problems which
cause Linux to refuse to mount the device read/write. Windows can
usually fix it, though I suppose there may be data loss. It's entirely
possible that doing the same thing on Linux would sometimes cause
similar problems.
