Invalid superblock after e2fsck

[Albert Sellarès]

Hi,

I have the original filesystem (on a logical volume) "intact" because I've
always worked on snapshots.

The filesystem has less than 2^31 blocks. This system has been correctly
running for four years and corruption become because of a hardware problem
with a SAN device.

The output of dumpe2fs -h /dev/storage/cabina is:
