find issue led to possible fsck bug



New clean install of FC5.

Error from running find command:


[root@ws-ai ~]# find / -name "ipop*" -print
/usr/share/logwatch/scripts/services/ipop3d
/usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/services/ipop3d.conf
find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for /selinux: this may be a bug
in your filesystem driver. Automatically turning on find's -noleaf
option. Earlier results may have failed to include directories that
should have been searched.


I recommended they run fsck on the file systems to identify and fix any
problems.

[root@ws-ai ~]# fsck -n -f -v
fsck 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)

Subsequent runs of fsck to actually fix the problems does not appear to
work. I even had them put the file /forcefsck on the system and reboot.
Same issues. The results of the fsck seem to vary slightly.

Harddrive tests have been run on the drives.

System info:

FC-5 on ws-ai
Intel Celeron 2.8ghz
WD3200JD-22KLB0 320gig SATA hard drive

[root@ws-ai ~]# uname -a
Linux ws-ai.ai.lan 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 #1 Tue Mar 14 15:48:33 EST 2006
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

He also tried a standard IDE drive with similar results and also had
similar results on a different system.

I searched bugzilla but did not find anything similar. I have filed a
bug report #190347.

At this point he is considering reverting back to RH8.

Anyone have suggestions?
