Debian fails to boot. Goes to intramfs shell. Matrix numbers on running of fsck
So in essence there appears to be a problem of some sort that is causing my laptop to be unable to boot.
As can be seen there is an error in /Dev/mapper/debian--vg-root requiring a manual fsck check which then results in numbers cascading down the screen.
As I have a few months work of not backupped work on that laptop any help or guidance would be very much appreciated. If these numbers scrolling down the screen are in some way an indication of things being fixed then that's fantastic.

As Tero has suggested, run fsck from a recovery media
