It is not an error, it is a warning that you should run maintenance
on the file system. After x mounts, or y time, you should run e2fsck
on the file system. Because you do not want to run it on a r/w
mounted file system, shutting down using "shutdown -Fr now" is a
good way to do it. It will reboot the system, and check all the file
systems. On the other hand, you can just ignore the warning. Most of
the time, the check will not find any problems. But it is usualy
better to find any problems early, while they are small problems,
rather then later, after they become big problems.
