Did you tell the kernel that your root file-system is ext3?  Just changing
/etc/fstab to say "ext3" isn't enough, since the kernel has to mount the
file-system first to get that file, right?

I'm not sure how you do it, but you do need to...  I think it can be done
with a command-line argument like "rootfstype=ext3".

A properly configured ext3 system will avoid the fsck if you haven't done
too many mounts or gone too long since the last fsck...
