I followed these installation steps exactly using Xubuntu 20.04: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fu...ion_Howto_2019 on a Dell Precision 5550 - for the record I installed a second 500G NVME drive (it supports 2), only "zapped" that one, and installed Xubuntu on that one. Now my problem is after my laptop is booted for a few days the root filesystem will all of a sudden go read-only, and doesn't seem to be related any power actions (suspend). When it goes read-only as you can imagine everything just crashes and nothing works, not even shutdown and I have to press and hold the power button to reboot it. Everything I have read so far says this happens when the filesystem is getting corrupted and to run fsck on it, but I have done that twice from a live usb immediately after the problem occurs and neither time did it report any issues, so I am more suspicious it's some kind of issue with the encryption/lvm. The NVME I installed it on was working perfectly fine prior to this install on it, so I don't think it's a hardware issue with that.
Here is last thing in the syslog before the problem happened around 08:00:00. dmesg logs don't show anything after the first ~19 secs of boot, and I didn't see any other relevant logs, please let me know where else I can look for clues.
