This I can understand.  :)

I am setting up, for testing purposes, a vanilla Ubuntu 19.04 system.  
Right now it's still unpacking my backup (taking many hours). It's  
encrypted, and this incurs LVM. Sounds like a normal setup, since the  
encryption is very easy to set up, with the Ubuntu installer. I want  
to try to use that system, so the corruption gets triggered, if it's  
still there. I have the hope that this works and the corruption  
doesn't occur again.

I should have used an LTS release for that, but now it's too late.

"beyond the skills and/or imagination of those trying to help you."  
denotes my SSD-as-a-Cache, isn't it? I haven't set up that again yet.  
When the system appears to be stable, I'll activate it, in order to  
see if that's what causes the corruption.

Okay... I'll try it with a "completely iditproof install" later, in  
case the corruption strikes again.
