Running fsck on a filesystem mounted read/write is not a good idea, and is almost guaranteed to report problems. Try remounting it read-only first. (mount / -o remount,ro). You should probably only do that from single user mode, after unmounting all other filesystems except /proc, /sys and /dev. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
