WARNING: Hard link count is wrong

[Jerry Feldman]

Here is the general procedure I used (in my case to resize):
1. Boot the rescue (In my case RHEL 4 U3).
2. The rescue automatically mounts the root file system, so check the mount 
table and unmount the HD's. In my case, both /boot and /tmp were mounted. 
3. Run e2fsck on the unmounted volume. In my case: /dev/mapper/vg00-root

This should fix the problem.
