apt-get should be run as root.

But, first try what Duy2anh suggested.

This problem seems to occur when the phone freezes or restarts while some apps are accessing your MyDocs partition.

Have you tried this:

mount /home/user/MyDocs


If it mounts alright, check again from your media app, if it says cannot mount or some application is trying to access this folder, reboot the phone and hopefully your problems gone.
I have tried that, but when I type "fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1" it writes:

-sh: fsck: not found
fsck should also be done as root.

You could install rootsh from Application Manager.

I have rootsh already installed. Didn't know I have to run these commands as root. Ok, give me a minute here, I'll try.

Opps, sorry, it helped me before.

Give this another try?

Code:
root

dosfsck -r /dev/mmcblk0p1

Be careful with letter "l" and number "1"

If it works, follow the on-screen instructions.
Good luck!

You are getting there. If the fsck ran alright, no need to worry about being unable to mount because infact you perhaps did not umount the partition. Just reboot and see.
