Notebook fails to boot. I started it with a live USB Ubuntu 20.04 and tried mount /dev/sda5 but receive this error:
mount: /mnt: can't read superblock on /dev/sda5
So I tried the commands below:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda

I have tried the solution presented here but I have not been successful.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mke2fs -n /dev/sda5
