Looks like in my case, the issue did end up being hardware.. or 3.5+ kernel fault tolerance. After doing multiple SMART scans and replacing my cabling and still getting corruption (but only in 3.5+ kernels while 3.2 continued to be ok), I finally removed the hard drive from the case bay (which has

For other people experiencing this problem, I suggest installing smartmontools and doing some tests on your HD to rule out actual hardware problems. Also, try booting with an older kernel from the grub boot menu and see if your issue goes away (because if not, you may actually have failing hardwar

I tried 3.5-rc5 and got the problem fairly quickly. Went back to 3.5-rc4 and noticed I was getting ext4 buffer write sda errors in syslog for that as well... so it might be that 3.5-rc4 doesn't actually work for me either, although I haven't had rc4 go into read-only mode at all yet. Since yester
