Hi michael, That error is what I'm dealing with now ( it's not a dell, perchance? ). When I ran fsck on the unmounted linux partitions, it found hundreds of errors. The Lilo? Rescue? HOWTO mentions it's usually a result of a hard drive problem. In my case, the vendor diagnostics (and window diagnostics ) check out ok on the hd. Since it occured to me after a power failure(s), I'm hoping it may be a one time corruption of the drive. The only suggestion I could make would be to fsck your linux partitions if you haven't already.
