mmhh...

i had very similar problems with e2fsck-1.1.8:

e2fsck-1.18 failed to check one single partition (hda3). I finally found that
the problems occurred when

1. during boot no zip-disk was in my zip-drive (hdb)

and

2. the partition which was checked was > 2 GB

my recent solution is to insert a zip-floppy into hdb before turning power on
