Found the problem: Occasionally, the /mnt/free filesystem is mounted read-only. In a weird way, so windows say the file is saved or deleted, but when I refresh the view the file is not deleted and the file contens hasn't been changed. When I start the terminal, I can not change the file I was editing because the fs is mounted read-only. I can (it seems) create new files, but not change the existing ones. Even if I delete a file X, I can not create a new file called X afterwards... this is very strange. But it could be caused by an unclean un-mount, perhaps I had a read-lock on any of the files when I plugged the USB cable.
So my key file had wrong contents... Will try again tomorrow, out of battery now
Anyone else have similar problems with un-clean USB disconnections? Or are everybody but me either using Linux or disconnecting properly (disconnect hardware wizard etc... which I never use -- haven't seen this problem before)
