Filesystem recovery failed. Please seek service.

After having passed the border between Denmark and Sweden, I have noted that the Jolla doesn't connect to data unless it is being switched on/off. This time I didn't do it but started a call in Sweden. After the call, the phone did still not find any data service (even though obviously connected to the network during my call).
So I switched it on/off. Just to be met with the message "Recovering file system, please do not power off." And a rotating Sailfish logo. I've never seen this before - and what's worse, it ended the process saying "Filesystem recovery failed. Please seek service."
Trying to reboot the phone several times. Didn't change this. Also tried to remove the battery for a longer time. Didn't help. Removing SIM didn't help either. Taking the SD-card out didn't help.
Surprised to see that this problem isn't described here. Any solution/hint - beyond the obvious: to sent for repair?
In that case, have a look at this; https://together.jolla.com/question/22079/howto-all-computer-users-recover-or-reset-a-device-that-is-stuck-in-boot-loop/
