Did you suspect filesystem errors, i.e. were there other reasons to run fsck in the first place?

Also, was there anything devices related in the kernel logs? Can you read off the raw LVM device w/o errors? When did the errors start / when was your last fsck with no errors reported? It's strange that the filesystem starts to show errors "out of the blue", so I'm fishing for hardware related issues, because: if it's software related, you'd have to upgrade the ext3 "driver", i.e. the kernel - probably not possible for w/o breaking ot of RHEL4.
