I boot-strap the system from CD and run:
fsck /dev/sda5

got bunch of errors eg.:
Directories count wrong for group #1567 (1, counted=0).
Fix? yes

Free inodes count wrong for group #1568 (8073, counted=8192).
Fix? yes

Directories count wrong for group #1568 (1, counted=0).
Fix? yes

Free inodes count wrong for group #1569 (8103, counted=8192).
Fix? yes

Directories count wrong for group #1569 (7, counted=0).
Fix? yes

Now when try to run it again I get:
fsck /dev/sda5
Segmentation fault

Is this partition/drive gone?
