Subject: Create superblock
Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2014 23:47:13 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403246832932-35023.post@n7.nabble.com> (raw)

Last week a harddrive in a NAS crashed in our office.  Long story short: We
have been trying everything. In the end we where able to pull an image of
the hard drive. Also we found out there's no superblock or secondary blocks.
Since I have recovered successfully the data I was wondering if it was
possible to create a new superblock and secondary block. If not I'll create
a new partition and place all the data back. 

Scary that only a power outage can do this...

TL;DR: Is it possible to create a new superblock from scratch?
