Eeepc 901 drive issues w/ UNR 9.10

I recently installed the Ubuntu NBR 9.10, updating from 9.04. LiveCD works fine, it installs and runs fine, but after 1-2 restarts I get the following issue:
This error repeats several times but the number between the brackets [] changes. The status, error, exception, cmd, res, etc... all stay the same.
It ends with:
/dev/sdb1 being /home
/dev/sdb2 being extended
/dev/sdb5 being Linux swap
I'm relatively new to the Linux world, Ubuntu Hardy Heron -> Jaunty NBR being my experiences.
I try unmounting the device (so I can mount it) using umount /dev/sdb1 but to no avail. It tells me the device isn't mounted. Trying mount /dev/sdb1 returns the error found using fsck. Using fdisk I can: delete, create, edit the partition and partition table. If I boot into liveCD I see /dev/sdb is formatted with /dev/sdb1 /home /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdb5 swap. I've tried re-downloading the UNR 9.10 off of the ubuntu website, re-installed several times and I get the same result.
If I have UNR up and running for a bit after a fresh install then I try updating it through the update manager. It immediately hangs once updating has completed, goes into a complete freeze and requires a complete forced power-off. Once it reboots same issue. I've tried installing Moblin on the netbook and it works fine, as long as I don't update it. Once I update Moblin using the update manager, I lose the /dev/sdb disk and the entire thing goes to shit.
What's going on? Is the disk dead or something else? Anyone know what I can do to fix it other than replacing the netbook?
