In rc.conf I have enabled fsck_y_enable=YES to allow unattended

only does partial tests?
A read-only fsck of a mounted filesystem will never come back clean,
since the filesystem's mounted :)
I think the question was: why did it find an error, when fsck had run at
boot?
Were you running background checking? And had it completed? Also there was a
bug where partitions fixed with background checking still showed a minor
error when unmounted and checked - check the list for details.
good question, the reasoning for me doing the online fsck check was I
suspect the hd itself is faulty from other factors such as very slow
performance and recent crashes, I have no local access to the machine
and I am not sure if the datacentre has been fully honest with me.
Background checking is on assuming thats the default. However I then
did some read only checks on another box which has never had an
improper shutdown and that also showed errors which I will paste here.
