As of this morning my (mostly) beautifully behaved Edgy won't boot in
either full or recovery mode. Messages on screen say fsck root file
system check ok, then checking file system - and that's where it
freezes.

I don't know how to bypass this check, since I can't boot even into a
cli.

Help anyone?
