On my old machine (which is very messy inside) I've got this message a couple of times. The solution was to fix the hard drive and the cables again. Something loosened up there and caused the problem. After putting everything back in the right place it worked again - except that the partition was messed up because fsck tried to automatically repair it and did a bad job in this (although the manual claims that fsck -a is mapped to e2fsck -p which should be safe according to the manual)
