I don't believe so. I have my own broken fs here (totally different story - and I knew, I couldn't trust neither the kernel nor e2fsck - so I used dm-cow for all testing). > I would like at this point > to destroy the filesystem and start my restores, but if it'd be helpful > to try to get information from the existing fs I can keep it around a > while longer.

No need to keep the entire file system. But since Ted didn't respond, I assume, there is no need to do even that.
