Hi, I had about the same thing here. One possible fix is (worked for me) to boot with the fixit-disk, and copy the mount* from there onto some new directory on your harddrive. then boot is single-user and use those mounts to get things going again. I ended up going back to 2.2 (3.0 was crashing every 20 minutes or so :/ Good luck with your system! hmm.. maybe this is just a north-european thing?
