Hi, everyone! This is my first and hopefully only post that's this dire. I've been using my ASUS with Zorin on it for about 2 years, running Dolphin and RPCS2 and things like that. I'm in the middle of a MGS:TTS game, and my computer freezes. I restarted my computer to a terminal, not allowing me to progress past it, saying something about a /dev/sda3 needing a manual 'fcsk' run. I'm very new to Linux and just coding all together. If I could get some help sooner than later, it would be so helpful.
Run these commands to check your file system...
Unmount partition
sudo umount /dev/sda3
Force File check
sudo fsck -f /dev/sda3
Automatic Repair
sudo fsck -y /dev/sda3
Say "Y" to all prompts.
Once completed, restart your computer
sudo systemctl reboot
Hopefully, this helps solve the issue. If the issue persists, you can come back here to get more assistance.

hey, thanks so much for your support! For some reason, it says:
sh: sudo: not found
Thanks for the help, do you know anything else? it says (initramfs) and i can't type anything before it.
That is the BusyBox Shell, not access to the system - so you do not need to use sudo - just run the commands directly but without sudo.
