believe it or not, Linux crashes as windows (http://eglug.org/glossary/term/87), even worse..
two mega crashes took place in three days in my xubuntu.. the most recent took place right after i installed new necessary updates from the net for my newly-reinstalled system..
after i restared the system for the new effects to appear, suddenly i found the system didnt work, leaving me some sort of pla-pla ended as a message appeared in the end : gsck or gcsk check must be done manually in the maintainance mode..
my simple questions as a linux novice are:
1-does this mean that i have to reinstall xubuntu for the second time in three days?
2-how can i access the maintainance mode?
3-how can i do the check as the error message told me?
4-and finally, is this scene frequent after installing updates from the internet, given that the system crashed in the first time when i tried to install xubuntu 9.10 from the internet as well?
i'd be very grateful for your answers, wishing it could mitigate my shock in my beloved xubuntu..
