I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 on a Dell Latitude D410 that has an older 8GB SSD. Occasionally I've had problems where during boot it would make me run a manual fsck and push (y) a whole bunch of times. It's always worked fine after that. Yesterday it did that to me again, same as usual except that, now it won't boot into the gui. It gives me this:
Code:

Any help would be appreciated. I have files on the hard drive I need, so at the very least I need advice on getting them off so that I can reinstall. If you need more info just ask and let me know how to get it, I'll be glad to. I'm not exactly computer illiterate, but I'm no wiz and I'm fairly new to Ubuntu so bear with me a little.
Again, thanks for any help.
