Description

Waking from suspend is pretty shaky when the boot and root partitions are on slower media (e.g. microsd cards). About 30%-40% of the time, the disk re-mounts read only and I have to reboot and go through a fsck. I "solved" this such that it re-mounts read only about 10% of the time, by changing the root partition in /etc/fstab to `errors=continue` instead of `errors=remount-ro`. This has been fine and my filesystem has maintained integrity, but I still do get that error about 10% of the time for some reason.

I'm certain that this is an upstream issue, but I want to bring it to your attention. I have found what seems to be a similar issue discussed [elsewhere](https://askubuntu.com/questions/911078/ubuntu-doesnt-read-sd-card-after-wake). Håvard Pettersen's solution may be the answer, but I have not tried it yet.

_EDIT: This has been experienced on 3-4 different laptops, all of different brands, and different kinds of microsd cards._
