I can do the following: (1) Backup your data by using dd (if you are sure, that your drive has not bad blocks on it) or dd_rescue otherwise (http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ddrescue/). (2) Rebuild superblock by means of using reiserfsck --rebuild-sb (3) Usual fsck check and following to its instructions. > > > Any ideas? > > Jules > > > > -- Yury Umanets
