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? -- View this message in context: http://xfs.9218.n7.nabble.com/Create-superblock-tp35023.html Sent from the Xfs - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
