Default NS4G- cm9 froze, pulled bat. stuck at boot, can access CWM Recovery, can't mnt SD

I'm was using CM9 nightly and it froze, I removed the battery and tried to boot but it hangs at Google screen.
I can access bootloader and recovery but, in CWM touch recovery, I can't mount or format system, sdcard, or data but can wipe and mount/unmount cache.
And I can't mount USB in recovery

I can access through fastboot, so what would I need to go about doing to get this thing back up and running?

I don't want to try to many things and screw it up worse or something. It seems to me like the partitions got screwed up or something, but that's just a wild guess. Can anyone help me fix this or point me in the right direction?

sounds like the sd(storage) is gone bad or going bad.

Any way I could test that theory, through ADB or something?

maybe a logcat while trying to access the storage? but really, if it isnt accessible, thats all the info you should need.

the internal storage going bad is actually a very common problem.

I guess locking bootloader and claiming warranty is the way to go.

fastboot oem lock
with fastboot while in the bootloader. provided that fastboot sees your device(fastboot devices).

Just a warning... if you oem lock you won't be able to oem unlock again IF you internal memory is indeed corrupted.
