I didn't see anyone respond to this, so I guess I will. forgive me if someone already shot you an email: the control-d at that point just means that fsck had issues fixing the harddisk, and needs you to run it manually. (it uses switches in the batch.) Just run: fsck /dev/hd?? (where ?? is whichever harddisk it complained about.) then, reboot and your cool.
