| Hi Tollef, thanks very much (!) for responding...
| 
| I'm new to this stuff, and really trying to understand the workings...
| 
| I don't understand what you mean by "a suspended linux kernel"?

Software suspend, aka suspend-to-disk.

| The script seems to be mounting these read-only, so, I'm curious how
| that can be destructive?  Moreso, I plan on using the physical write
| lock switch on my flash drive once I have things set up.

Even mounting read-only means replaying the log.  Of course, a
physical lock should overwrite this, but the scripts can't assume
that.
