Unmount the partition, `debugfs $partition` and then `extract

exactly that.

Well, I tried debugfs, using -b and -s options.
Used Rick Stevens' suggestion to use
mke2fs -n -b <blocksize> /dev/sdc7
where I used blocksizes of 1024, 2048, and 4096.
and for each one of these sizes I saved the output so
I could use the -b and -s option to debugfs.
Yes, I made sure the the sb block was chosen from the
list output by mkfs for the corresponding blocksize.
All of the options cause debugfs to say:
dev/sdc7: Wrong magic number for Ext2 Image Header while opening filesystem

This is distressing :)
