besides the problem has to do with the power cord and/or the battery -- not the fs. I'm sending this from the netbook in question with the power cord attached; if I was on battery power it wouldn't work. Look in your /etc/init.d/fsck, you'll see the warning.
There ought to be some boolean thing I can put in /etc/conf.d/fsck to over-ride it, but apparently not.
