--fix-fixable

Yes, I had done this, however each time I ran it it found 2 problems
.... and supposedly fixed them .. that is until I ran it again where
it found the same two errors again ... again and again ;-)

I will (when I get home this evening):

a) format the current ext2 as reiserfs and reboot
b) Rebuild tree (--rebuild-tree -S) with an empty partition
c) run a scan (--fix-fixable)
d) Restore files from backup
e) run the scan again (--fix-fixable)
f) reboot and hope

If this doesn't solve the problem then I have no idea.... Does anyone
foresee problems doing this, or other things I should check too while
at it?

Thanks
Ralph
