     There is a program /sbin/findsuper in the e2fsprogs package that
sounds like it might be what you want.  Unfortunately it doesn't have
either man page or info file (except the standard default saying there
isn't one).  findsuper --help and findsuper -h yield nothing helpful.
I can't find a reference to findsuper in /usr/doc/e2fsprogs.

     However, findsuper <devname> produces a list of superblocks.  It
works whether the file system is mounted or not.
