I'd be surprised if you had many other options besides rebooting with
your fingers crossed.  One thing that might be worth doing before
rebooting is editing /etc/defaults/rcS and changing

FSCKFIX=no

to 

FSCKFIX=yes

to force e2fsck to do whatever it thinks it has to do without any
questions.  If this fails, you really will have to get someone
physically close to the machine to help to make any more progress :-(
