Thanks! I appreciate it. Use
this guide. The commands in any outdated guide are all crossed out, so as long as the commands are visible, you are looking at the most up-to-date guide.
I think you don't have an external drive with you(?) In this case, you will want to setup tmpfs, as I state in the guide. I hope you have at least 2GB of RAM - 1GB of RAM should also work, but the test file size will be smaller, and the problem takes longer to reproduce with smaller test files.
What filesystem are you on? I've consistently reproduced the issue on ext4, ext2, NTFS, and Btrfs, but strangely ext3 seems to be safe from data corruption.
