From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Your disks volume can't boot, so it's dropping you to a prompt to investigate. You need to run a disk check with 'fsck' at a minimum. If you're not familiar with the CLI , just boot a LiveISO, and check your system disks from a desktop you're familiar with.
