corrupt extent header

Recently I lost power in my house. I have a UPS and shutdown the computer. I thought it had gone OK. But when I rebooted I got this message:

Code: Select all

 7.278734] dracut Warning: e2fsck returned with 4

I left the shell and the system booted. But now when I reboot I keep getting the error.
Would appreciate any guidance about how to deal with the error.
Thanks

Search on the web regarding the terminal command fsck. This command is for checking or repairing a linux file system and should do what you need.
