The first attempt failed, however then I tried `e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda4' and that gave me screen after screen of corrections. After that I was able to mount the disk, and found all of the recovered directories and files in `lost+found'. Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction so now I can at least recover data from these disks.
