Hi, Just thought I'd ask for advice on this: I accidently ran the 'rawio' (/usr/ports/benchmarks/rawio) program on the wrong drive, and it pretty much screwed up the whole drive. It's an 8gb western digital, I am still fsck'ing it now. It's taken hours. I'm wondering if anyone knows any utilities that may help me recover some of my data, or help repair the drive, fsck is having a very tough time, and I'm having to do it manually with fsck sometimes (i've pressed 'y' about 2000 times). The system is totaly unusable, none of my kernel's will boot, the boot loader doesn't even run correctly. Thanks in advance for any advice...
