Hi Sharukh,
Boot Linux into single-user mode (linux single on the LILO
prompt... substitute the name of your kernel for "linux").
Once you're in the single-user shell,
mount -oremount,ro -n /
e2fsck -y -f -p -v /dev/hda<your-root-partition-number>
^D (will reboot the system with a clean root partition)
HTH.
Regards,
-- Raju
