Weird thing happening on Linux

[Tech N Gamer]

So every time I boot into Linux from Windows, initramfs pop's up and I have to type:

 

e2fsck -vb 327862 /dev/sda6

reboot

 

I don't know if it's Windows doing something to the Linux partition or what but it's irritating.

Can anyone help me on this, I'm not an expert on Linux.

Specs:

Intel Core i5-6400

NVidia GeForce GTX 970 VRAM 4GB

1TB HDD

8GB of DDR4 RAM

Dual-boot system.

Kubuntu is using the Intel Microcode and NVidia Closed-source binary driver.

Are you running an ext2fsd driver in Windows to read the Linux partition from Windows? If so, that's what's corrupting your superblock.

 

If so, you will need to either:

 

1. completely uninstall ext2fsd and any other similar tool on Windows;

OR 

2. disable the metadata_csum and 64 bit file-system support on Linux. You may be able to do so using the following command: 

 

$sudo tune2fs -O ^metadata_csum,^64bit /dev/sda6

or by reinstalling Kubuntu on a fresh partition without 64-bit and metadata_csum support (options are available in the live-USB/CD graphical installer, as well as through fdisk).

 

Note that since this does changes to your file system, there is a risk that data loss may ensue. No responsibility is taken if this fails and corrupts anything. Always have complete, up-to-date backups of any data you care about when changing file systems.
