I wrote "To me this seems to be a kernel/udev bug" and "If the problem is
related to udev". Troubleshooting and blaming are quite different things.
If the issue was understood and solved then it would be possible to blame
something, not earlier.

Don't stuck at trying to figure out what I think about udev. Forget it.
That's not the important. The important thing is that, the problem was
either Windows related or not. If it was then it's already solved. If it
wasn't then it's still unknown. Going into the Windows interoperability
direction became a waste of time for 4 months now.

I've went over again all logs, comments and emails with Magnus and if
you're interested then I could summarize, when I will have some spare time,
why I think, after all, that the issue was hibernation related.

I was referring to the minifo overlay filesystem Ubuntu LiveCD uses.
I didn't remember the normal distro doesn't use it. On the page
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveCDDesign there is a comment: 
"mini-fo is _BUGGY_."

And yes, in theory it shouldn't have matter related to this bug but the
fields are connected enough, even if very loosely, that an unexpected
interference, bug could cause such problem occasionally (the relocated data
was almost 761 MB which wouldn't have fit into the memory probably).
