I also use fsck -p to clean this error, but it still give me the same message. I really don't know what is going on. You should only use fsck, if you are in single user mode. I suspect you have your machine booted into multi-user mode. Then fsck will always tell you that for all the mounted filesystems. You can boot into single user mode at the Boot: prompt with the "-s" flag. We need to write a boot man page :-).
