(ok, I did e, down, e, single, b)

Before I could even enter fsck I got a forced check by fsck and my screen 
filled up with error messages. It ended with 
/dev/sda1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: run fsck manually
fsck died with exit status 4

Then I got errors like
bash: The: command not found

After all that I entered fsck -a /dev/sda1

This brought me to the same messages. Then I ran fsck /dev/sda1 and said "yes" 
to any suggested fixes. Nothing happened for a while, then I got my root-shell 
back. I shut down (weird recovery menu appeared on the way out) and booted 
again.
Apparently all this has killed my X-Server and that is a problem for another 
time and forum.

In my limited knowledge I would say that my faulty file system has
thrown errors in fsck and usplash was unable to deal with that
correctly. It could be difficult to recreate this bug.
