I would say that your hard-drive had a problem and now /bin/bash is
corrupted. Since /bin/bash is the second-most important executable on
your file-system (/sbin/init being the first), you can't boot. And it is
an interpreter. Since you were able to post messages from your log, I
guess you have a rescue disk. I would advise using this to replace
/bin/bash.
