Hi,
a client of mine (I SWEAR it is not me) accidentally formated one of
their HDs, and they shouldn't have :) Kind of a mixup, and they end up
having no data. Is there some miraculous way of restoring the previous FAT ?
Thanks a million
D.Morel

probably not easily, the critical data for FAT filesystems were likely
clobbered by SB0 and the metadata associated with that AG (like thr
root inode, directory, etc).
