If the automatic file system check failed, it's asking you to run a manual file system check, i.e. 'fsck /dev/<whatever>'

Code:
# grep -C "find" /etc/{daily,weekly,monthly}
/etc/daily-if [ -d /tmp -a ! -L /tmp ]; then
/etc/daily- cd /tmp && {
/etc/daily: find -x . \
/etc/daily- \( -path './ssh-*' -o -path ./.X11-unix -o -path ./.ICE-unix \
/etc/daily- -o -path ./portslocks \) \
/etc/daily- -prune -o -type f -atime +3 -execdir rm -f -- {} \;
/etc/daily: find -x . -type d -mtime +1 ! -path ./vi.recover ! -path ./.X11-unix \
/etc/daily- ! -path ./.ICE-unix ! -path ./portslocks ! -name . \
/etc/daily- -execdir rmdir -- {} \; >/dev/null 2>&1; }
--
/etc/daily-if [ -d /var/tmp -a ! -L /var/tmp ]; then
/etc/daily- cd /var/tmp && {
/etc/daily: find -x . \
/etc/daily- \( -path './ssh-*' -o -path ./.X11-unix -o -path ./.ICE-unix \
/etc/daily- -o -path ./portslocks \) \
/etc/daily- -prune -o ! -type d -atime +7 -execdir rm -f -- {} \;
/etc/daily: find -x . -type d -mtime +1 ! -path ./vi.recover ! -path ./.X11-unix \
/etc/daily- ! -path ./.ICE-unix ! -path ./portslocks ! -name . \
/etc/daily- -execdir rmdir -- {} \; >/dev/null 2>&1; }
--
/etc/daily-if [ -d /var/rwho -a ! -L /var/rwho ] ; then
/etc/daily- cd /var/rwho && {
/etc/daily: find . ! -name . -mtime +7 -execdir rm -f -- {} \; ; }
/etc/daily-fi
/etc/daily-
This is cleanup code that gets run each night as root:
Code:
# crontab -l | grep daily
# do daily/weekly/monthly maintenance
