I had a bad ide cable which I have now replaced.  on
bootup the filesystem produced a lot of errors and I
lost my first superblock.  I since fsck'd and repaired
the superblock at sector 32.  At no time does fsck
create, fix, or transfer the sector 32 superblock to
the front of the drive.  mount won't accept the drive
in the condition it's in(says no superblock, or bad
superblock..  different programs, different errors). 
If anyone knows how I could get my data off and format
my /var drive, or possibly repair my damaged
superblock at the front of the drive with anyone of
the 50-some backups that exist throughout the drive.  

thanks

Darren
