It might be worth while if you can get a second disk, to do a dump, or
dd of the first disk over to it, and then trying to fsck with a newer
version on the copy (so you can go back if you need to).

FreeSBIE would be an ideal choice for this:

(eg.  put the two disks in a machine, boot from the FreeSBIE CD, copy
the one disk over, fsck the copy, and then try and boot the copy).

I suspect you'll need to use dd because of the filesystem corruption.
