Remember, you could have been at the limit of reboots before it does a automatic fsck. Been there, done that.

Yes, it could have, but it's been 2 hours now, and the hard drive is only 40 gigs ssd. Since it was a pre-prod not yet in use server, it'll wait till monday.
Please post a follow-up, I'm curious what went wrong. :)
To follow-up on my own storry, I got there this morning, expecting to find the server stuck at fsck or somthing similar, only to find it with only the sord "GRUB" on the screen, and beeping like crazy. I didn't have any iso nor centos cd with me, so I'll get back there this after-noon with a portable cd-drive and centos cd.
