I get a similar error when starting in recovery mode.

If I don't touch anything after selecting recovery mode from the GRUB
menu, I get a different output: the recovery menu appears and the
following text over the first menu item:

/dev/sda6: 784 file, 195956/2895803 clusters

It still reacts to NumLock (led flashes), and I can reboot by pressing
Ctrl-Alt-Del, but that's all.

If I press any keys before the recovery menu is displayed, then it gets
similar to the screenshot posted by Martin, but the scattered messages
are this time:

/dev/sda6: 784 file, 195956/2895803 clusters
General error mounting filesystems.
A maintenance shell will now be started.
CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and re-try.
r...@localhost:~#

Again, the only actions that bring any reaction are NumLock and Ctrl-
Alt-Del. Ctrl-D or pressing any other key seems to be useless.
