e2fsck problem



Hi,
i'm running Sid (ext3 fs) on an Acer Travelmate 8005 laptop. It is few days that i've got this warning from the kernel:

EXT3-fs warning: maximal mount count reached, running e2fsck is recommended

I've tried to run  e2fsck /dev/hda but here are the results:

e2fsck 1.38-WIP (09-May-2005)
Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks...
e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hda

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
   e2fsck -b 8193 <device>


What does it means?

Thanks in advance,
MC
