Dell Inspiron Mini 10v 8Gb SSD running Lucid 10.4 with latest updates.
I have exactly the same fault. As with the other reports, three or so updates back, the boot process froze completely. Taking out quiet splash showed that it froze after fsck had completed. The last two updates have stopped it freezing, but fsck now takes in excess of 20 mins to complete on this netbook.

My suggestion for now would be to kill plymouth when /forcefsck is detected. I don't think this would be a popular suggestion, but for me, it would be nice!
