A glitch in Lion? Had to reformat before drive would mount again


this morning rebooted macbook pro. started trying load firmware update, of course didn't exist because there wasn't 1 begin with. hanged , sat there @ 0% 5 minutes until restarted it.

then, booted spinning indicator. restarted again, apple logo, nothing.

went disk utility app in recovery, macintosh hd gray , wouldn't mount until erased partition. wouldn't let me repair or verify permissions.

proceeded reinstall os x. download took 2 hours, 20 minutes install. nightmare.

has had happen in lion particularly?
