The filesystem is clean.  The problem is that sometimes fsck can't find
the partition to fsck it.  I'm thinking that the /dev/.tmp-253-2 is what
the partition is called at the early stage in the boot process when fsck
is run.  Once the system is up it's /dev/dm-2.  The '253-2' comes from
the block device associated with the logical volume:

  --- Logical volume ---
  LV Name                /dev/vg00/lv02
  VG Name                vg00
  LV UUID                71dI2E-PW8J-imIe-P22K-xRPZ-iyzv-845aPD
  LV Write Access        read/write
  LV Status              available
  # open                 1
  LV Size                6.84 GB
  Current LE             1750
  Segments               1
  Allocation             inherit
  Read ahead sectors     0
  Block device           253:2
