The command to repair the filesystem is (here we will take:
/dev/hdc2 as the damaged one, which is yours.)
fsck -f -c -y /dev/hdc2
The meaning of the options:
-f : Checks even if it seems that the filesystem is
looking good.
-c : Looks for "Badblocks". These will be marked and
they will never be written again.
-y : Takes "yes" as answer to all questions. This way
you can handle hundreds of mistakes without having to
answer what to do in every single one of them. If you
don't want to use this option, just leave it away.
If the new try with fsck fails (the first try is already failed
while booting), then only remains in the most cases
formatting and installing again this partition.
