Re-reading the text in Glenn's image, this looks like yet another instance of bug 423247.

The workaround is to type 'fsck /dev/THEDEVICEINERROR' at the recovery shell (don't type Ctrl+D, type your root password), and reboot.

If you don't have a root password, press Ctrl+D to continue booting if you can, then get another terminal and type:

sudo -s
passwd
<same password twice>
init 6

to get back to the boot process and its failed fsck.
