Upgraded 9.04 to 9.10 via Synaptic and recieved the same error message, "root filesystem fails to mount". Was able to solve the issue by entering root passwd, change directory to /etc, make backup copy of fstab. When I edited fstab I noticed my root partition was mounted as my storage drive. By reediting fstab, this corrected my root mount problem.
