Noone told me that degraded md raid5 is dangerous. Thats documentation issue #1. Maybe I just pulled the disk for fun. ext3 docs told me that journal protects me against fs corruption during power fails. It does not in this particular case. Seems like docs issue #2. Maybe I just hit the reset button because it was there. Randomly hitting power button may be stupid, but should not result in filesystem corruption on reasonably working filesystem/storage stack.
