Its not the fstab, I mean what am I gonna do, not mount the root drive? idk if its windows fastboot but this setup has been working for a couple months and survived windows and linux updates so this seems unlikely

No I realize that, for me it was stuck on a windows partition , which was irrelevant to Linux running. It sounds like it found some corruption and wants to do a full disk check. Or maybe their is a hardware fault arising. Others may have better answers for you.

Are your windows drives mounted in linux? If so comment them out in fstab or nofail them as a minimum, although it wouldn’t normally manifest as a root drive error (unless you’ve set up a strange mount point for the windows drives within root or home? or have them above your root drive in fstab so they are mounted first and that fails?). Also you said elsewhere your linux drives can be “seen” in windows. Just to be clear, you’ve not mounted the drives in Windows right using a tool like Ext2Fsd? Because if so, go into windows and unmount the drive. And have you disabled fastboot? Not just rebooted but disabled fastboot completely?
