      Hello I am having an issue where I shut down the retropie thru the menu and when I go to boot the raspberry pi back it seems to start the boot up process like normal. However after a few minutes it begins to run a script saying : "Inode has compression flag set on file system without compression support. clear? Yes." This will appear over and over. I left it on for a half hour and there were no changes. I have reformatted my micro sd card, installed retropie 4.2 and it works the first time every time. Just when I turn the raspberry pi on again it does the script like I stated before. I am using a 2.5 amp power for the system so I know I am good there. I am not sure what is happening. Does anyone have any ideas? Or need other information to determine the issue? thanks in advance!

        @tylerspitz quick Google suggests possible sdcard corruption. Do you have another SD card to test?

              @herb_fargus Do you have a preference on SD Card? I bounce back and forth between Sandisk and Samsung.
