Hmm, the segment looks to be overwritten with new data after the partition was successfully mounted. I don't know if it's certainly safe now, but It might be needless fear. > One other question I have for anybody on the list or Ryusuke, on a > corruption of nilfs on older kernels (pre 2.6.30) should I leave > fsck0.nilfs2 to run on the initscripts besides the new 2.0.22 kernel > module or is this really redundant?

There is no merit to run it from initscripts since it doesn't verify filesystem consistency. ( Clearly, making a true fsck is one of TODO items. ) As for fsck0.nilfs2, you only have to use it when you couldn't mount the partition. I hope this never happens for the 2.0.22 module.
