I had the same thing a few days ago, and it seems the microSD was corrupted. Might be worth grabbing another microSD and writing a fresh image on it to see if that's the case (or wipe the current one if you're not bothered about loosing what's currently on it).
Other thing you can do if you have a 3.3v USB to serial converter handy is to connect to the GND, RX and TX ports on the EXP header, and see what output you get from the serial console (ANSI, 115200 baud).
