Right, so I guess you could try changing the values/disabling it... though the message should be pretty harmless.

What I would like is a script that could check for the warning and if found would run the e2fsck script automaticly.  I have seen ubuntu do this.

...but what happens if the e2fsck warning is coming from your boot partition? On a usb boot I've been using a different usb boot device to e2fsck the first one and vice versa. On a frugal hd boot, I'm a little stuck because the only choice I have is via a "fromusb" floppy boot which takes ages...

To check the boot partition just use the toram option.
The best senario is to use this combination to boot and check filesystem(s)

boot:  dsl 2 toram legacy base norestore checkfs

Thanks Roberts,
"boot dsl 2 toram legacy base norestore checkfs" did it.
Apparently message was referring to hda2 (dsl image).
I've been running e2fsck on hda3 which is my persistent partition.
Warning line is now gone from boot screen.
