Hello Jessica, For me the problem seems to be solved since, by chance because of a different error, I happened to use "check" as a gParted function. Try to do the same (if you don't have it : wget-install gparted) 1) run gParted 2) unmount your Linux partition 3) open the menu "Partition - Check" 4) when finished (normally you'll be advised of successful operation) remount your partition 5) better reboot and everything should be ok, if not re-install your default sources list. Greetings Jean
