As the screen is telling you, something seems to be messed up with the hard drive (corrupt). You should run "fsck" (file system check).

The command is "fsck" as I already said above and as the screen is telling you. You can probably read the screen better than I can from the blurry video

 

Quote

 

/dev/sda2 contains a file system with errors, check forced.

Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked list found.

 

/dev/sda2: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.

...

The root filesystem on /dev/sda2 required a manual fsck

I didn't mean this , I meant the thing that is to be typed when the black screen shows the exact sentence (*command)

No, type this:

fsck -f /dev/sda2

What Harry777 gave you is the possible list of all fsck command line arguments. You only need the ones from above.

 

Watch the YouTube video I posted above, this is the exact same error. See how the guy fixes it.

Can you show the full output? Based on your screenshot from above "fsck" should exist, so I assume fsck is complaining that it can't find the disk. Make sure you typed "/dev/sda2" exactly as shown on the screen.
