You don't have a corrupted filesystem, but you do have hardware
problems.
Typically, signal 11 errors are caused by attempting to overclock your
machine beyond what the CPU or other hardware can handle. The other
major cause is faulty memory.
If you're overclocking, try turning it back down to it's normal speed
and see if that fixes the problem. Also, check to make sure that the
heatsink and fan are working correctly on the CPU.
Check your RAM to make sure it's all properly and securely seated in the
slots. Check your jumpers to make sure you've got them set correctly on
the motherboard.
Hope these ideas help!
