Press ESC to enter the recovery shell

Please provide the output of the following commands, (I'm sorry, in this 
case, since copy/paste is likely not an option, you'll have to 
transcribe the information.

cat /etc/fstab  (I'm only really inrested in the line that contains /home)

blkid

fdisk -l /dev/sda  (repeat with /dev/sdb if you have two hard drives)


Note: There is a good chance what whatever has happened to your system 
is catastrophic, and recovery will be re-install of the OS, possibly 
with a new replacement hard drive.
