 +   In older versions of Ubuntu, fsck used to work from the Recovery Mode. 
 +   However, later versions of Ubuntu leave the primary HDD/SSD mounted, 
 +   so fsck no longer works.
 +
 +   Let's check/repair your filesystem...
 +    boot to a Ubuntu Live DVD/USB in “Try Ubuntu” mode
 +    open a terminal window by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T
 +    type sudo fdisk -l
 +    identify the /dev/sdXX device name for your "Linux Filesystem"
 +    type sudo fsck -f /dev/sdXX, replacing sdXX with the number you found earlier
 +    repeat the fsck command if there were errors
 +    type reboot
