Public bug reported:

Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04

nautilus:
  Installed: 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://ftp.klid.dk jaunty-updates/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:2.26.2-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://ftp.klid.dk jaunty/main Packages

I was deleting(shift+del) ~500.000 files I'd recovered and copied to my
NAS, and then I get a black screen with nothing working, not even
alt+ctrl+F*. Thankfully, Sysrq+REISUB worked, so I was able to restart
safely and try again. Same thing happened. A few files were deleted,
then it crashed. Third time around, I just did a "rm -rf," and it
worked!

The files were on my external 2TB USB-drive.
