ubuntu won't start.
Hello,
I'm not sure but I think I switched my computer off in a wrong way.
Anyway, since then, when I try to start my computer, it says
init: mountall main process (1024) terminated with status 3.
so i just forced to reboot, and then I got this :
filesystem checks are in progress
press esc to cancel checks
and then I get again
init: mountall main process (1024) terminated with status 3.
and
mount of filesystem failed.
a maintenance shell will now be started.
CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and re-try.

what should I do?
I'm waiting for your instructions, as I'm just a beginner, and I'm completely blocked and I can't work, please help me as soon as possible. Thanks a lot.

I've never run into that error, but did you allow the filesystem check to run completely?

Try running fsck on each partition.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

I did not select anything, I told you everything that appeared on the screeen.
I wrote fsck and the answer was :
fscl from util-linux-ng 2.16
e2fsck 1.41.9 (22 aug 09)

I wrote y when the prompt was
connect to /lost+found<y>?.
The result was

My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
