Isn't a short read a hardware failure thing?

I thought you could do something with debugfs to mark the inode and 
unused?

Have you tried: (filespec is an inode number)

freei filespec
              Free the inode specified by filespec.

kill_file filespec
	Deallocate the inode filespec and its blocks.  Note that this does
not remove any directory entries (if any)  to this inode.


Maybe you could do something with: 
ln filespec dest_file
              Create a link named dest_file which is a link to filespec.  
Note
              this does not adjust the inode reference counts.

and create a link to that inode somewhere you could find, and then search 
for it?


There are options to find to allow you to search by inode (-inum).
