I've been getting this message on boot up:

EXT2-fs warning:  maximal count reached, running e2fsck is recommended

I just ran e2fsck and am getting the same message on boot up.  I didn't do
anything special with e2fsck, just ran it with the -v flag.  Also, it
complained about hdb1 being mounted, but would let me continue anyway.  Is
there a way to unmount a linux partition and still run e2fsck?  That is, I
only have hdb1 and hdb2 (swap).  Can I umount hdb1 somehow and run e2fsck
on hdb1? 

Anyway, why am I being asked to run e2fsck?  It seems with my other Linux
machines, e2fsck, or something like it, is run automatically whenever the
maximal mount count is reached.  Do I need to set something up?

Regards,
Gary
