I do not think that we are likely to find out anything useful from
looking at your dumpped /. Notably the errors that were produced were
because an indirect block had gottened trashed. Looking at the file
image is not going to tell us how they got trashed. Usual cases are
memory errors, address line errors on the I/O bus, or I/O error in the
disk itself. The journal does not know of these errors, so does not
look to correct them. Hence the need for a manual fsck.
