I guess the way to go for fsck information would be to find a forum concerned with GRUB.
Once you see any of the kernel & init messages leading up to the recovery shell prompt, Grub has long since finished doing anything it can do. Discussing this on a Grub forum would be 100% off-topic.
How to reinstall just the / on another partition is the clear next step.
No big deal: 1-disconnect the Hitachi 2-create sda9 with DFSee if you don't want to use sda8 as the new 11.3 / 3-put the new target partition in the BM menu 4-install using expert partitioning, specifying sda[8,9] as / and sda7 as /home and formatting only /, optionally doing a repair install without formatting to sda6 if it offers that choice (probably won't unless you've fixed sda6's filesystem inconsistency first, in which case you shouldn't need to install again) -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
