To bring some closure to this thread, I ended up using a 64 bit Ubuntu
Desktop Live CD which comes with e2fsck version 1.41. Here are the
steps required:
sudo /bin/su - root
modprobe dm_mod
apt-get install lvm2
vgscan
vgchange -a y
lvscan
e2fsck /dev/path/to/partition
This worked and the fsck completed within a few hours.
