If I drop to the shell I can let the fsck finish and start the X environment 
manually (just as a work around).

If I don't do anything I can login via the GUI, but since my home directory is 
"not ready" by then I just get an empty desktop and a warning dialog like 
"cannot access home directory, taking / as default". After which the session is 
pretty unusable of course, default installation is that most of the desktop is 
in the home directory. 
I also do not get an indication on the login screen that something is not ok 
(that something is still running in the background)
