ok, now that i have messed up my box severely i need help in starting
over.  the most important thing is getting my secondary drive back.  it
does not contain any system files, but the superblock info is messed up.

i have always been able to use fsck to repair the filesystems (mostly with
solaris actually) but this time i am stuck.  it says the superblock magic
number cannot be found and the alternate is not working either.

does anyone know of a way to restore the filesystem?

as for the primary drive, i can pull my etc backups off it and start over.
that is not a problem.  i will likely get a cd from walnut creek and doa
clean install.  that is the surest bet.
