Root@cca.ucsf.edu mentioned to use icheck for mapping blocks to
inodes, but icheck doesn't do what I want to do. Perhaps I didn't
state this clearly.
I have some block numbers (normally logged by the system as bad) and
I want to know, what file is using the Block, I want the inode of
this file or, even better, it's name (s, if it has hard links), so
that I can hopefully save the file before marking the block as bad.

Hope this clarifies the request

Thanks in advance
