It just happened to me again. This time I could even switch to VT1 after unplugging it. I can see a good list of "change /devices/…/sdc…" which surely corresponds to the Tails installer (I was cloning), and a last one saying "remove /devices/…/sdb/sdb4" which surely corresponds to me removing the system Tails. Then "Bus error". I tried to see whether the watchdog was still alive but of course I got segfaults on every command I tried. That's with a pretty recent ISO, and liveusb-creator 3.11.4-9. -- sajolida
