This message means that the filesystem has detected some sort of inconsistency, but you don't have to worry in your case; the error flag can be marked imprecisely when a filesystem has detected I/O errors even if no inconsistency occurs. This flag is not cleared by fsck0 because I haven't yet implemented the feature which fully verifies coherency of a filesystem. ;) Well, if you can't ignore the message, I can add a dummy force check option that does nothing but drop the flag.
