Hi Andrei,

I am unable to explain what happens but can tell you what to do when it does, 
say yet to the first question, which i no longer recall. Within the 5 second 
limit, but on the second question, say no. 
Then I think Ctrl+d and the system will reboot and will again check the file 
system and continue without any problems.

For various reasons my system has been exited uncleanly [power dropped out 
etc.] and I found that this is the way it will recover without any data loss. 
Works a treat.

Charlie.
