I dunno about those errors.
What you can always do:
1) Update your backup - you have a backup, don´t you? Use a file based
backup via rsync -aAXHSP or so.
2) Try repairing the filesystem.
3) If it fails redo the filesystem from scratch by formatting it and
replaying your backup.
Maybe someone else can help with the meaning of the errors.
