Once due to loose power cable my desktop gets halted accidentally and
starting it, shows some error message and it can't boot the system. I
use the Ubuntu Live-cd and use the gparted partition editor to check
and repair the hard disk/partition. After it completes the operation I
restart the computer and usually log in to my ubuntu system.
