Fsck!
The server has decided that it has to do a full filesystem check right now. This normally does this once every six months after a reboot. And today is the lucky day.
This does mean that the server isn't broken, but there are something like a million files on there (thanks to the busy Munuvians), so it will take a little while to run. Probably on the order of an hour, and we're half an hour into that already.
Oh yeah: A filesystem check on Unix (or Linux) is done by a program called fsck.
Update: Coming up now. Sorry about the delay.

You can take a filesystem offline if it's not in use and fsck it while the system is running. However, when Linux decides it's time to to a full check as part of the boot process (which it does every 6 months), then the system will not finish booting until the fsck is done.
