Public bug reported:

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 11.10
Release:        11.10


The cause for an error

"Errors while checking disk drive for /MyPartition"

can also be an earlier system time! It took a long time to find this
out: when booting the kernel with noplymouth and without "quiet splash",
I found the reason for the "disk errors":

"Der Zeitpunkt des letzten Schreibens von SuperBlock (Wed Apr 25
13:27:46 2012, jetzt: Mon Apr 23 09:46:10 2012) liegt in der Zukunft."

which is something like "superblock last write time is in the future".
See Bug #268808 for a similar description.

As the normal Ubuntu boot screen just shows a message "disk error",  and
all the fixing like fsck doesn't help, it would be much clearer to have
a message like "system time before max file system time! (Check system
time in BIOS!)".
