boot problems with fsck died with exit status 8 - fantsypants - 27th Jan, 2013 06:06 AM

Hi All,
Today I am getting the following error on boot;
fsck: Warning... fsck.vfat for device /dev/mmcblk0p1 exited with signal 6.
fsck died with exit status 8

typing exit boots xbmc fine but I'd like to fix this if possible, ideally without a fresh install.

Anyone know what I need to do?

Cheers for help.

This means linux found something on your boot partition. Try putting the SD card in a windows machine and let it check the fat partition.
