Funny thing (actually not so) - my optic drive is dead. But why do I
have to reboot
into recovery mode? System itself works correctly - /boot is on sda2
and everything
else is on LVM at sda3. (Windows 7 was on sda1 but it died due to...
lack of space;
srlsy - it started taking full 30GB of disk space after all updates).

Running this in recovery mode gets me the same message as running it normally
(as it should - after all sda1 is not mounted) which is the same as my
original mail.
I also tried all possible combinations of "e2fsck -b <superblock>" -
result is the same.
