You need rootsh from extras repository installed for each of these steps in X-Terminal application:
Easiest solution, if you have no data in the MyDocs folder at all, or you could replace the data easily from your PC, apply a fresh new file system to the partition
Code:
sudo gainroot
mkfs.vfat -n MyDocs /dev/mmcblk0p1
If you want to retrieve the data on the phone do not apply a fresh file-system, but check and repair the file-system
Code:
sudo gainroot
fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs
This might be sufficient to get your data back, but depending of the actual corruption additional steps might be necessary.
Please disconnect the phone really careful from your PC every time, give the two systems (PC and Phone) enough time to sync the writing!!!
