Clear.
Just before that on the screen from booting is: [/sbin/fsck.ext3 (1) -- /home] fsck.ext3 -a -C0 /dev/hda10 fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/hda10 /dev/hda10: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -r 8193 <device> fsck died with exit status 8 File system check failed.

I didn't run fsck on /dev/hda10 on Ubuntu. I was aware that somewhere 'hd' has been changed to 'sd' at least in Ubuntu so I ran
fsck /dev/sda10
I don't recall seeing the output of 'fdisk -l' on the sid system; perhaps it would list disk sda instead of hda.Try 'mount /dev/sda10 /home' on the sid system. If that works, change hda10 in /etc/fstab to sda10.
There is no /dev/sda10 in my sid system. I verified this with: ls /dev/sd and [tab] Thanks, Paul
