Re: Giving up
A disk error which corrupts the superblock can be fixed
by running e2fsck and manually specifing a different superblock
than the first ones.(-k superblock I think)
1. I always write the addresses of at least a few when installing Linux
for these cases.
2. I suspect the addresses on the disk are the same for all Linux
installations, but am not 100% sure. If so someone can send you an
address.
