Hi Vyacheslav,

thank you for your analysis and support!

This write (unless something has happened to system clock) must have
occured during the mount attempt after the reboot. The time you
mention (which timezone, btw?) is approximately the time when I
discovered that my laptop has hung and when I rebooted it. My
impression (which may be wrong) is that there passed quite a while
after the hang before I had noticed this.

A small note: 48017408-48011264+1 = 6145

I prepared the dumpseg output for these segments. Please find it
at http://www.dragonworks.ru/nilfs2/dumpseg.log .

As to the raw data, these blocks happened to contain some quite
sensitive information. I won't share this information
publicitly and would avoid leaking it as much as it seems
reasonable. If this data is of real and great help, please
let me know, I will prepare and send a link privately.
Sorry about that.

Is there any chance to register a different fs aside with
"official" nilfs2? Would such a simple change be sufficient?

What I want is to whenever possible avoid rebooting a machine
I am using for experimentation. It has /home on a nilfs2
partition and there're usually open user files on it.

Thanks and regards.
