I had a simlar problem upgrading to 7.2. It was caused by attempting to do a file check on the vfat/dos partitions.
The way I fixed was to boot into linux single user. Edit /etc/fstab, checking that your vfat/dos partitions end like this: /dev/hdb1 /mnt/ddrive vfat user,owner,exec,dev,suid,rw,conv=auto,uid=500,gid=500,auto 0 0 The critical part is the two 0's.
