After you hit ctrl-d it should drop you to a login prompt.

Make sure you video tape it and put it on YouTube.

when i hit control-d it reboots everything and tells me the same thing "manually run 2xfsck on hda2"...."log into user account by typing control-d"..."or enter root password to enter maintenenace". i dont know what else to do i reformated that partition in windows and using Gnome partition and changed file system to ext2 and it still says it

Sounds like you have a harddrive with physical bad sectors.

Might be time to buy a new one.

Test your Hard Drive if its still good with a DFT test (Drive Fitness Test)


Download this program at this site
http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/...ess-Test.shtml


This will create a bootable floppy disk. A CD image is also available for download


then just run the floppy or cd which ever one you make and do advanced test on your hard drive

If it passes you'll get a green screen, that mean your hard drive is fine

If you get a red screen it means you have a bad hard drive and show what section is bad.
