Now, I have installed Linux Mint 10 Julia 64-bit, so I changed the kernel too.
Linux 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:45:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I checked with command:
sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo reboot
Unfortunately the problem still exist. I don't have progress bar showing in %. The process was very quick, didn't stalled and system started but I didn't see what was actually happening. Only information that it will be checked.
I also posted the same comment for bug 571707.

"Did you always upgrade your system with levels 4 and 5 or once for the kernel upgrade with mint-update?"
I don't do level for update because in Mint they are described as untested and dangerous. I do level 5 update because they are described as dangerous but tested. And I suppose kernel update may have some serious security updates, that's why I use level 5. But of course I do have a backup. This is topic about kernel update

That's why I do it. I prefer to risk reinstatement than keep system potentially vulnerable. But I have to say that after recent update I deleted old kernel and my system broke. So, I think it is better not to remove old kernel. But I'm not experienced enough to comment on kernels anyway. So get advice on forum. :)
