[ale] SSD stuck in R/O.

[cfowler at outpostsentinel.com (Chris Fowler)]

I've got this odd problem with a SSD that I've only seen twice. At some point it becomes read-only. The kernel has not clue about this problem . There are no printk() messages. All writes to the SSD appear to work, but at boot everything that happened during that boot is gone. 

I know the date it happened because everything in /var/log/messages after 9/18 is from the current boot only. 

Where does this data go? If I am not truly writing to SSD where are the bits being stored before I do the reboot and they are all gone?
