Having had someone mention this problem to me and solved it via a hard
shut down, my advice was to NEVER hard shutdown, but to press

You don't even need to do that much. Switch to a vconsole with
Ctrl-Alt-F1 to F6 and then just press Ctrl-Alt-Del. This will force a

when you do the power pull, you could have data corruption for
