 It is bizarre. I just shifted everything down by 24kb and it is happy.

$ dd if=/dev/hdc1 of=test.ext2 bs=1024 count=250M skip=24
$ dd if=test.ext2 of=/dev/hdc1
$ dd if=/dev/hdc1 of=test.ext2 bs=1024 skip=$((1024*1024*250+24))
$ dd if=test.ext2 of=/dev/hdc1 bs=1024 seek=$((1024*1024*250))
$ fsck /dev/hdc1
fsck 1.39 (29-May-2006)
e2fsck 1.39 (29-May-2006)
/mnt/video contains a file system with errors, check forced.
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
/mnt/video: 463863/36634624 files (2.4% non-contiguous), 72204488/73258400
blocks

So that seemed to fix it. I have no clue but am not one for looking gift
horses in their mouthes.
