I have a FSCK on my hard disk that I got from my local user group (SDACE)
I don't know if it is the same one you got from SSYX.UCSC.EDU, but it
came with a disk cleanup program that compresses the unused space
fragments from a disk partition.  It is important to run FSCK before
you run the cleanup program (I forget the name) or the cleanup program
may wipe out your disk.   This FSCK doesn't do much, I think...it just
looks for zero-length files.

You may want to try your FSCK on a floppy that is write protected.
