I have a friend with a corrupted disk. Evidently this is part of a
linksys backup system. He removed the disk and put it into a PC. After
working with him I found out it was:
Disk /dev/hdb: 81.9GB, 81964302336 Bytes
16 Heads, 63 Sectors/Track, 158816 Cylinders
Units = Cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes
Device boot Start End Blocks ID System
/dev/hdb1 2 158563 79915248 83 Linux
/dev/hdb2 158564 158816 127512 82 Linux
swap / Solaris
We tried running e2fsck but it couldn't find a valid superblock. I had
him dump the block with the first superblock (2nd 1K block) and it was
all zeros.
Does anyone know if there something else to try?
