I don't think so. It gave me some error about the
filesystem having the "needs_recovery" attribute set.
I   don't remember exactly but in the end, I landed up
using the 'features' command of debugfs to clear these
attributes and then attach a fresh journal back.

Was there any other way ? 

Thanks
Ash
