"Input/output error" usually indicates a consistency problem in a file system (e.g. after a hard shutdown) and in most cases can be repaired with a file system check.
I suggest that you boot from an Ubuntu installer (on a bootable USB stick or DVD) in the "Try Ubuntu without installing" mode and perform a file system check (fsck) on your Ubuntu hard disk partition.

Can you help with this problem?
