Yes, that makes sense - but trying to use it would not crash in itself, it's just not a very sensible thing to do, correct?
No, since handles are just "handles" it won't result in a crash, but many
bugs are better replaced by a crash. Suppose a program writing to your MBR,
and you don't have a Linux rescue disc handy. Would you prefer it to crash
or corrupt the MBR? :-)
The crash may be after a parial write. But if you want a more realistic example, use windows in place of linux as it is more reasonable to expect crashes from windows than linux.
