I'm running Ubuntu MATE 18.04 on an Acer Swift 1 laptop, I'm getting this error error screen.

I tried everything I know. I can't even install Windows. I tried to install Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10 from a USB drive. My laptop doesn't have a CD/DVD drive.

For 18.04 or newer...

  • boot to a Ubuntu Live DVD/USB
    • plug in a Ubuntu Live DVD/USB
    • power on the computer and wait for the BIOS splash screen
    • most systems can bring up a boot menu from a function key, like F10 or F12
    • select the USB flash key
  • open a terminal window by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T
  • type sudo fdisk -l
  • identify the /dev/sdXX device name for your "Linux Filesystem"
  • type sudo fsck -f /dev/sdXX, replacing sdXX with the number you found earlier
  • repeat the fsck command if there were errors
  • type reboot
