It's not an error, it's a warning. 
But seriously, it's nothing to worry about. ext2/3 filesystems have a counter of the number of times they are mounted, and once they reach a certain threshold (which you can change using tune2fs or using options when you create the filesystem), it recommends that you run an fsck on the filesystem, at which time it resets the counter to 0. So just unmount the filesystem and perform an fsck to "fix" that.
