That's no error message and you don't have to create larger partitions. In
the file /etc/fstab there is set how often your system may mount a
specified hd. If this number is passed Linux checkes the hds whether
there's an error or not. So after a specified period your system checks
every hd.
If you want to rise that number look in your /etc/fstab:
/dev/hdb3 /usr/download ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb2 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb1 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 /usr/locals ext2 defaults 2 2
The last two numbers set how often a hd can be mounted. After that it will
be checked.
In my example the last hd (hda1) is checked not very often whereas hdb3
and hdb2 are checked more often. You can change "1 1" to "2 2" if you
feel better.
All this information can be seen at 'man fstab' or 'man mount'
