Note that the filesystem gets checked at every boot. On the ARM
systems I have, just booting them tends to trigger a fsck. This is
because the date that the filesystem was last mounted, is in the
future. On boot, the clock of the board gets set to some date around
1970. To solve this, I tend to set the time between fsck intervals
'0', which disables the check:

# tune2fs -c 0 /dev/mmcblk0p2

In order to have the systemtime corrected, I use ntpdate.

And in case you need any other binaries, you can use yum like
# yum install /sbin/fsck.ext3
or
# yum install e2fsprogs

An "rpm -qf /sbin/fsck.ext3" on your F14 will also point you to the
package that contains that file.
