Every once in a while we encounter a problem that can only be fixed from commands. Today I came across this error and wasn't sure what to do. After a while of checking I was sure that I needed a live cd with some special tools on it and I was going to have to get dirty, but in reality this wasn't the case. Please let me know if this solution also works for you.
Inodes that were part of a corrupted linked list found.
Steps to the solution that worked for me:
- Enter in root password.
- Run command: fsck -t ext3 /dev/sda4 *where /dev/sda4 is the partition/drive in question
- Choose yes for all of the following prompts
- When you are given the # prompt again type exit, and the system will reboot.

I have made the switch to Ubuntu Linux. I am still keeping one disk of windows around just in case there is something I am going to be unable to do, but as far as I am concerned I am migrated. I have managed to install World of Warcraft in Linux using WINE and it seems to run equally as good as it does on windows... except for some of the key binding problems. I captured a video of me playing wow with Beryl running. As you can see the video quality sucks, but the quality of the game play during the rotation of the cube is excellent. Very amazing that it actually works. I also managed to get my wifi card in my laptop to work in Ubuntu Linux, so that will now be my main school machine! Hooray... onward to trying Beryl with it.
- On a side note a great tutorial on how to get Broadcom wireless devices to work in Linux can be found here, Ubuntu Forums
