Hi Vitaly! Thank you for the reiserfsck 3.9.20. It in fact had different results on that drive. I had it run in gdb (as I did with 3.6.19 to see what/where the trouble may be) and the result is:
(***snip***) vpf-10680: The file [641222 641239] has the wrong block count in the StatData (1528) - corrected to (1520) vpf-10680: The file [641222 641241] has the wrong block count in the StatData (47192) - corrected to (47168) vpf-10680: The file [641222 641242] has the wrong block count in the StatData (16624) - corrected to (16528) are_file_items_correct: All bytes we look for must be first items byte (position 0). Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted. 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall () (***snip***) Hmm... Ugly ;-).

Thanks and have a nice day, Konstantin
