Problem Booting Mint After Sidux Install

I heard about Sidux this morning and gave it a try, when i boot into Mint now it stalls, kicks me to cmd line and I get a message about manually cleaning sda2 or something.

I was instructed to look over checkfs, this is it.

I have to press CTRL-D to set boot up away again and login.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Andy

I previously had PCLinuxOS on there and wiped it for Sidux, I can see now why the errors would occur.

No idea on fixing it but good to have errors to learn that bit more.

Thanks

Very good Andy Mack. You worked it out for yourself.

Welcome to Mint.

Thanks for the ego boost Fred

but I cant take credit. I just understand why what happened happened, not how to fix it.
