 I was going to say "probably", but looking at the rest of your mail
I'm not sure.

 At this point, the kernel doesn't agree that /dev/sda1 contains a
valid ext2 filesystem - the fact that /proc/partitions did not match
/dev might be relevant.

 How did you create the partitions ?  Go back to the Live CD - what
is the partition map according to 'fdisk -l' ?

 I'm not familiar with that command.  Running an actual fsck on a
mounted disk is a route to madness.

 You claim to have '/' in the first primary partition, with another
partition as extended, and the swap as the first partition within
that.  Does that match what fdisk reported ?
