Linux boot error during filesystem check

[husseinadel]

unexpected inconsistency

while booting to linux this appears to me exactly:

"
Checking root filesystem
/1:unexpected inconsistency ; run fsck manually
(i.e., without –a or –p options)
***An error occurred during filesystem check
***dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot
***when you leave the shell
***warning –SELinux is active
***disabling security enforcement for system recovery
***run ‘setenforce 1’ to reenable

give root password for maintainance
( or type control-d to continue)

"

so what can i do?!!!!
NB. i have nearly very poor background in linux,,so please reply in some details,
also ,, when i type my password it says
"repair filesystem? 1#"
when i type y,he said "undefined command
repair filesystem? 2#"

when i type yes, it gives me a long run of letter "y" as follows:
y
y
y
y
y
y
y
y
y
......
please if anyone help it would be great
thanks

Linux problem

You may try to type "fsck"

Re: Linux problem

log into your system as single user, do this changing at the boot the comands to boot linux: Type Linux 1 at the end of the line and reboot.

"xxxx" Linux 1

This should take you to the single user shell... now unmount the file system to check or mount it as read only:

mount -o ro "file system here"

now you can run fsck to check the file systems and correct the mistakes...
