initramfs ERROR!

Your PC starts and shows boot screen like:

intramfs:


Some reasons:
  1. Maybe you play around with your drives.
  2. Maybe with some other OS.
  3. Maybe there was an abnormal shutdown.

How to solve it:
  1. Boot with any live cd.
  2. Run >  sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda1 (if sda1 is your main partition; where your linux is installed)
    It will show the output regarding your sda1 drive.
    If you want to identify which is your primary partition
    Run > sudo fdisk -l
  3. Run > sudo fsck -yV /dev/sda1
fsck - file system check; you can read more about it by man fsck in terminal.

After that, restart your computer.
Your file system is repaired.
