Upgrade to the latest e2fsprogs. There's been a number of improvements in e2fsprogs especially with respect to journal handling since 1.25. 2. Errors when running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem don't necessarily mean anything; neither do errors if you havne't run the journal yet. So don't try to run it on a mounted filesystem, and don't try to do a read-only check if filesystem wasn't mounted uncleanly. - Ted
