Something that would help us a lot to understand the problem would be this:

1. Open the application called ‘Terminal’
2. In this application run the command:

eos-diagnostics

3. The above command will create a file with the information of your system (example: eos-diagnostic-160614_111731_UTC + 0100.txt); Send us this file so we can analyze and see a possible solution

To repair the filesystem you would have to boot from an Endless USB drive (https://support.endlessm.com/hc/en-us/articles/210654503) and use the “Disks” application there (and choose the “Repair filesystem…” option).

It does say “568 bad sectors” in the picture you posted, which means your hard drive is experiencing some hardware failure and may need to be replaced.

I would also recommend backing up any important data you have.
