During a required fsck session several filesystems returned this error

What if you "fsck" by device instead of by label, i.e. run
fsck /dev/hda4
instead of
fsck /var
If the ext2 label is gone, it can be rewritten with e2label. Do not do
this yet, though.
From the man page:
fsck is used to check and optionally repair one or more Linux
file
systems. filesys can be a device name (e.g. /dev/hdc1,
/dev/sdb2), a
mount point (e.g. /, /usr, /home), or an ext2 label or UUID
specifier
(e.g. UUID=8868abf6-88c5-4a83-98b8-bfc24057f7bd or LABEL=root).
Nor-
mally, the fsck program will try to run filesystems on different
phys-
ical disk drives in parallel to reduce total amount time to
check all
of the filesystems.
e2label will display or change the filesystem label on the ext2
filesystem located on device.
If the optional argument new-label is not present, e2label will
simply display the current filesystem label.
If the optional argument new-label is present, then e2label will
set the filesystem label to be new-label. Ext2 filesystem labels can be
at most 16
characters long; if new-label is longer than 16 characters,
e2label will truncate it and print a warning message.
It is also possible to set the filesystem label using the -L
option of tune2fs(8).
