Whenever you see the above message you need to pay attention to it!

[...more log output, showing an FS in dire need of an fsck...]

FJFR> 	Anybody can help me, or say me whom I can ask?.

Unmount that filesystem and run 'e2fsck' on it.  Read the man pages for
details on 'e2fsck' usage.

If that's a filesystem that you can't unmount run-time (i.e. it reports
"busy"), try booting single-user and then using 'e2fsck' on it.

If the FS is corrupted badly enough, you may lose some data and/or wind
up with some stuff linked into lost+found.  Alas, them's the breaks....

FJFR> 	Sorry for the length of the messages.

Better too much log output than not enough to diagnose the problem!
