Connect to PC in PC Suite mode and make check file system.

Also you can check in terminal by check fsck.vfat with root permission.

I got mine solved by just connecting via mass storage and unmounting it

You need 'rootsh' package installed via Hildon Application Manager for these X-Terminal commands to perform the file system check.
Code:
sudo gainroot
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1
fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1
Yes, do the fsck command twice!
For best results better copy and paste the commands to prevent typos.
If any persistent error is put out, please post the full error message for further investigation here.
