Stefan:

What advantage does it have to partition the disk that way instead of:

/
/boot
swap

Regards,

Julian

I would do:
e2fsck -f -c -v /dev/hda8

If that fails, badblocks not found, try 
e2fsck -f -v /dev/hda8

Remove -v if you dont want it to be verbose (show lots of info).

If it works you should make a backup and perhaps invest in a new disk.
Also I 
recommend you to split the disk into more paritions. I would suggest you
to 
make the following separate parttitions:

/
/usr
/usr/local
/tmp
/var
/opt
/home
/boot
