ext3 resize failed, data loss
...free space than it should have, and it couldn't complete an fsck (and was obviously not safe to use mounted rw lest it try to write to space it didn't actually own). Google turned up some accounts of people with the identical issue, and suggestions to fix it by writing a new superblock with e2sck -S, then fscking - I did this, and it totally trashed my filesystem. The fs is now the right size and mounts fine, but everything just got dumped into lost+found. Is there any way I can fix this and get my data back? At least get it back to its previous state so I can mount it ro and copy my data...
