Was the inode number from the other device as well?  Sorry, this is
the first I've heard that there are two ReadyNAS devices in play.
It's one of the reasons why it's really painful to try to be a help
desk for these sorts of questions over e-mail....

Debugfs uses the standard Linux block device interface.  If that's not
sane, e2fsck isn't going to be sane either, and it's a kernel bug.  At
that point, you'll have to talk to ReadyNAS folks since they are
providing the kernel you are using (or the wonky non-standard
hardware, or both....)

There have been NAS boxes out there which have used non-standard, out
of tree kernel patches that have resulted in their devices using
non-standard file system formats.  So that's yet another thing which
can't be ruled out...
