Could you please run debugreiserfs -p /dev/xxx | gzip -c >
df-error-fs.gz, and make it available somewhere for us to download.  If
you are using reiserfsprogs 3.x.0j or so the output can contain actual
file data, so you probably want to put the image onto a password
protected page.

This will take a metadata dump of the filesystem, I'd like to check it.
