1. Are you sure it does not initiate a filesystem umount?

2. I do not open the cover until the unit is *off* anyway.

3. An ext3/4 filesystem (with a journal!) is not "corrupted" when not
   cleanly unmounted.

4. I have disabled automatic mounting of the SD card via
   `/etc/default/osso-mmc-blacklist.sh` and run fsck before each mount
   (with a custom script).
