Yes, but that wouldn't explain why e2fsck is complaining of "invalid
operand: 0000".

You can see exactly what commands are being run in a sh script by adding
"set -x" up near the top of the script.  This will produce a lot of
output, but you should be able to see exactly how the e2fsck command is
being run from the script.
