ehhhmmm ... did you specify the partition to check?
you must use "fsck /dev/hda5"
an inode is the data stucture, which holds information about a
file. after pressing "y" on all question from fsck you'll find the file
#370715 in the /lost+found directory (relative to the mount point of
hda5). look, if it is something useful, if yes, then save it to a sensible
location, if not, delete it.
