Aaron - At the root shell prompt, enter you root password. Then do the
following:

e2fsck /dev/hda1
e2fsck /dev/hda2
e2fsck /dev/hdb1
e2fsck /dev/hdb2
e2fsck /dev/hdb3

,etc., until it doesn't give you any more errors. Note that the fix routine
could take a long time if there is a lot of damage but I have seen an
apparently thrashed drive come out of its coma unscathed by using e2fsck.
Worh a try.
