Alright, fix-disk has finished, and here's the output:

Ok! It looks like fix-disk is now giving this its best shot - it's currently at 40% through pass 1 of sda2.
So I have a slightly off-topic question: I'm working on this from my laptop, so I was just worried about what might happen if I for some reason lose my wi-fi connection? Will I be able...
