I had a similiar problem on upgrading to Feisty. I would get an error
similiar to this: "fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to
open /dev/.tmp-254-3" and the control-D to continue message, but after
the boot process the partitions would mount correctly and appeared error
free. in /var/log/fsck/checkfs the log would confirm this error message.

after looking around a bit on the internet, i found this post:

http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-25938.html

it seems this might be related to udev

here's the salient quote from that link :  "I had a problem a little
like this. There is a known problem regarding timing of events at boot
and udev devices not being created quickly enough. I got round it by
adding a 5 second sleep at the beginning of the fsck script in
/etc/init.d"

So I added the line "sleep 5" after the initial comments in
/etc/init.d/checkfs.sh , and everything seems to work OK since then. I
haven't had the message at all.  /var/log/fsck/checkfs confirms that the
file systems have all been fully checked.
