I just wanted to create a separate home partition on my Ubuntu 12.10 system. I booted the liveDVD, resized the sda2 partition (28gb of data resized to 30gb based on MiB [originally on a 100gb partition]) and made a new ext4 partition for the home folder. The drive is an SSD drive. I had changed the settings (noatime etc.) for SSD succesfully a week ago. On reboot I get the following error:

/dev/sda2 contains a filesystem with errors
Inode 74669 has an invalid extent node (blk 6881289)
fsd / [953] terminated with status 4

What would you suggest me to do? If I can avoid a clean install that would save me a lot of time (I had just done all the config).

I was following this HOWTO, but I did not get to changing any of the files or configs other than those with gparted.

I have a (two-week old) SSD Samsung drive which is functioning just fine (other specs see bottom of this question). Other specs: 64bit 12.10, i7, 8gb ram, nvidia.
