If there are no errors found, it should continue to boot to the desktop. It continues booting in text mode. Does it get any further than "Mounting root filesystem"/"Mounting filesystem" (or words to that effect) in the text-mode boot process? My disk was checked this morning, because of 30 mounts. If you're often rebooting your PC, you can change the number of mounts/days between checks, using tune2fs. You want the -c parameter to change the number of mounts, and the -i parameter to change the number of days. Check the man page for more info, and as it recommends, don't set all your partitions to the same values and don't disable both!
