You are right. You have to grep the dump file for two strings "[29:1(SD):0:2a:0]" which names root directory stat data item "[2a:0(NAME):0:0:0]" which is the root directory item itself Normally, the output there should look like NODE (3851068) LEVEL=1 ITEMS=12 SPACE=15 MKFS ID=0x66d6b8ae FLUSH=0x0 #0 SD (stat40): [29:1(SD):0:2a:0] OFF=28, LEN=94, flags=0x0 exts: 3 mask: 0x13 plugin: sdext_lw offset: 2 len: 14 mode: drwxr-xr-x nlink: 7 size: 7 plugin: sdext_unix offset: 16 len: 28 uid: 1000 gid: 0 atime: Wed Feb 25 21:45:42 2015 mtime: Wed Mar 5 00:25:14 2014 ctime: Wed Mar 5 00:25:14 2014 rdev: 350 bytes: 350 plugin: sdext_plugin_set offset: 44 len: 50 Pset count: 12 permission : id = 0 formatting : id = 2 (smart) hash : id = 1 (r5_hash) fibration : id = 2 (ext_1_fibre) statdata : id = 0 (stat40) diritem : id = 2 (cde40) crypto : id = 0 digest : id = 0 compress : id = 1 (gzip1) compressMode : id = 4 (conv) cluster : id = 0 (64K) create : id = 4 (ccreg40) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #1 DIRITEM (cde40): [2a:0(NAME):0:0:0] OFF=122, LEN=352, flags=0x0 NR(7) NAME OFFSET HASH SDKEY 0 . 184 0000000000000000:0000000000000000 0000291:000002a 1 .. 208 0000000000000000:0000000000000000 0000291:000002a 2 data 232 0000000000000000:0000000000000000 00002a1:001cd53 3 etc 256 0000000000000000:0000000000000000 00002a1:0010000 <cropped> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please notice, that actual layout can differ, so ignore any exact numbers except keys here.
