If the inode table is not corrupted, even if it may be time consuming, 
you can use the -inum switch of find comand, for each file system involved.

gcecchi at pc-gcecchi:~$ ll -lid /home/gcecchi
776220 drwx------  73 gcecchi users 4096 Apr 15 08:37 /home/gcecchi/

gcecchi at pc-gcecchi:/tmp# find /home -inum 776220
/home/gcecchi
