1. Unmount /hdd - via the VIX option in the menu (You may have to disable timeshift if you have this enabled, then restart your box)

2. Open a terminal window and connect your box with a ssh session (Run the following commands)

3. tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 (sda1 should be the dev used for /hdd) - You may see Filesystem State: Clean with errors

4. Next run df -h (This will show you the amount of space available, you can use this later to compare after running the fix)

5. Now to repair the file system run the following e2fsck -y /dev/sda1 (The file system will be repaired crossing all fingers and toes)

6. Re-run tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 and again check what is stated for line Filesystem State: Clean success!!

7. Again re-run df -h compare the difference it may only be slight but it is enough to resolve this issue

8. Mount /hdd via VIX option in the menu and turn timeshift back on

9. Restart you box and use as normal

Hope this helps anyone who has the same issue.

You can run a file-system check/repair (fsck) from the Enigma2 menu options (Setup -> System -> Storage Devices -> Filesystem Check).

(As well as timeshift, you'll need to de-activate any swap file you have in use on the disk first - note that this is a swap file as in a paging device, not as in moving channels around!)
