what exactly does "corrupted" mean? can this "corrupted" file then still be 
opened under linux?

as a hunch i'd say a) you didn't unmount the drive properly, b) the drive is 
defective, or c) UTF-8 and/or line ending characters are to blame, but this 
wouldn't affect chkdsk, i assume. however, you could try changing both 
(settings -> configure editor -> open/save) to be sure.
