We'll, I did what you suggested. I booted into recovery mode, and ran
fsck /dev/sda1.

It found a file system with errors. After fixing them, my system boots
fine. Thanks for the help. I've never actually done a manual fsck check
before.

I do not think I have a failing hard disk though. I think hardy heron
just never installed right, because i was having a few problems to begin
with. One of which was an error in wine about an lspci sound error or
something. The fsck check fixed something called that, so maybe wine
will run OK now. I had just chalked all that stuff up to bugs, since
hardy was still in alpha. I will keep an eye out for future file system
errors nonetheless though.
