Here we go.

Created a smaller partition (100MB). dd'ed /dev/zero to it, dd'ed it off
to NFS host to locally cmp it with /dev/zero to make sure it's nice and
clean. It is. Then mkfs.ext3, mount, rsync over /usr/lib of my test
root, unmount, and dd it off to the NFS host again.

The result shows the same errors with fsck.ext3 -n -f ./test.img

I uploaded it at:

Cheers,
Ben.
