I hope I have posted in the correct forum. I had a choice between:
* Linux - Newbie (I'm not even though I didn't know the e2fsck command)
* VirtualBox (not exactly this problem), or
* CentOS which I am trying to load up via VirtualBox
I have tried Googling which lead me to forum sites like this but not had any success and importantly was too afraid to try more in case it causes more issues. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is what I can see when I tried loading up. I did not do anything like mount or didn't shutdown properly like what other people mentioned they were doing. I have included more info following this error message.
Starting udev: [OK]
Setting hostname localhost.localdomain: [OK]
Checking filesystems
fsck.ext4: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root:
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternative superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
