Sorry, should have sent it to the list instead.
Thanks for the patch! I tried it, but seems it still can't find the
super root. Here is the output. What shall I do now?
Super-block:
revision = 2.0
blocksize = 4096
write time = 2010-05-14 13:58:33
indicated log: blocknr = 1608334
segnum = 785, seq = 307637, cno=671100
Clean FS.
The latest log is lost. Trying rollback recovery..
