I wonder if this is a possible bug. Just to clairify because you were a little vauge.
You:
Mounted the / when you booted (automatically obviously).
You mounted it again while you were logged into your computer say to /mnt or any folder really.
Life continued on without interuption for a good while.
You turned off you computer and something was corrupted?
It doesn't seem right to me that that should break a computer.

Orly? Yeah, computer froze eventually (possibly because it's a POS and I was running too much on it), and when I rebooted, mounting couldn't happen.
What I did: -Connected a dead hard drive
-Tried to mount it but ended up mounting the laptop's HD a second time
-I know this, because when I tried to select the newly mounted drive, it gave me the same stuff that's on the laptop.
-Both drives are 250 gigabytes in size, which is how I made the mistake
-The external drive I was trying to view doesn't even spin up, so I'm not sure it'd even be recognized by the disks utility.
Edit: Problem solved, breakdown is comment next to yours.
