It's telling you that it has discovered a single inode allocated to two
different files. Try running fsck on the guilty party. But that should be
done automatically on boot when it discovers that the disk is "dirty" so
there may be deeper problems. You didn't my any chance do something werid
with dp, did you? (Though I'm not sure that even that could cause this 
message.)

It could also mean just about _anything_ if your system is really messed up.
I'd suggest reformatting and repartitioning the disk from scratch, if
nobody else has any better ideas.
