I think you corrupted your / partition ,try to run e2fsck command if this doesnt work ,use linux rescue and check all entries in /etc/fstab and verify whether it is correct

got a mail server setup using Fedora Core 2. A power outage occured which unfortunately the UPS didnt hold. errors generated when start up;
***An error occured during the file system check. Dropping you to a shell; the system wll reboot when you leave the shell. Give root password for maintanance (or type Control -D to continue)

After rebooting this is what happened;

setting up Logical Volume Management: /dev/hdc: open failed: No medium found (FAILED)

Can you point me in the right direction please?
