Hi,

Whenever I hit sync or media check the following error happens.

** I have tested anki with shift pressed down (no add-on activated) but the same error happens

Thanks in advance for your cooperation and help.

Hi, Abdo thanks for the reply,

Yes, running the fsck from a live cd session fixed the problem for good.

Thanks.
