Since this I have rebooted, 
done a mkfs on the drive to rebuild the file system, 

mkfs -V -t ext3 -L "hdf" /dev/hdf1

followed by a fsck to check the file system.

fsck -V -p -c -c -f /dev/hdf1

none of which found an errors.


since then I have unmounted the file system so it is not used, but I get
the following errors
