I have the same issue on a system (main firewall at home) after the latest
'lunar renew' last friday. The system has been updated regularly, last time
before this - approx a week before.

I started a 'screen' and ran 'lunar renew' which I left running. After a
while (two or more hours) I get back to check on the progress and the
session just closes (using putty on windows). Can not log back in. It was
pingable but traffic through it wasn't working correctly so I just asked my
fiancée to restart the box "the hard way". When I got home I connected a
screen to the box and saw the same error as in the pictures - though my
root device is /dev/sda1. Due to timeconstraints I haven't had time to dig
deeper.

Oh, using the boot-cd I ran an fsck on the system (ext3) and it completed
without errors.
