I got the same results as you. It eventually worked when I copied the entry matching my card into /etc/pccard.conf and hard-wired the irq as the same as the pcic device (9 in my case): $ cat /etc/pccard.conf irq 9 card "Lucent Technologies" "WaveLAN/IEEE" config auto "wi" 9

The error means that your machine crashed with soft-updates enabled, leaving 14 blocks and 3 files still allocated on disk (using up blocks & inodes). If the error keeps turning up, I would guess that you have a 0 or empty fsck field in /etc/fstab and fsck -s therefore not fixing the problem.
