Fixing an Ext3 FS

Hi Guys and Gals,

I have two HDs: 1 for / and /home and another for my data collection
(music, funnies, pix etc.).

I did somethig stupid and hang my machine - so I had to ¨turn it off
uncleanly¨...

When I try to run fsck.ext3 on it I get this:

<-- snip -->
i_file_acl for inode 16416 (...) is 465902557, should be zero.
Clear<y>? yes

Inode 16416 (...) has a bad mode (0163644).
Clear<y>? yes

i_file_acl for inode 16417 (...) is 3952012214, should be zero.
Clear<y>? yes

i_faddr for inode 16417 (...) is 3931302522, should be zero.
Clear<y>? yes

i_frag for inode 16417 (...) is 213, should be zero.
Clear<y>? yes

i_fsize for inode 16417 (...) is 233, should be zero.
Clear<y>? yes

Segmentation fault

<-- end -->

I had to answer yes to each question because it claimes I cannot run
it with -a or -p options.

I know some of the data is fixed - but I cannot mount it.

Here is the mke2fs output for this device:

[root at pinguino ~]# mke2fs -n /dev/hdd
mke2fs 1.36 (05-Feb-2005)

      4096000

Anything I can do? Please Help!!!

All my stuff is on that device...

Thanks
