Bug#549337: (no subject)

I have to add: I'm not sure my problem was due to that "superblock 
time". I wouldn't have been in panic if I realized it simply was a date 
problem, ...but maybe it was as I read quite quickly.

I had no problem *at all* when chainloading from grub1.

fsck on partitions solved it *for good*, even if I had to reboot twice 
so that it tells me about other partitions which had a problem too.

It was a really fresh Debian install, and I can't remember of any tool I 
may have used during my session which would have altered my partitions 
(except grub-upgrade -> I knew I was going to make that upgrade during 
this session so I wasn't going to screw up everything) ; the major thing 
I did, and which I mention is first post, being that gnome reinstall 
which I found weird to happen (this was because meta package "gnome" 
wasn't selected).
However due to the unmethodic of how I proceeded I can't affirm that 
problem was due to grub-upgrade for sure.

If there was a list of typical error messages which can trigger that 
CTRL-D thing and ask for fsck after being unable to mount root 
partition, then I'd gladly have an eye on it and see if one could be the 
one I saw ... ahum.
