<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have this 2GB laptop drive that used to be the
system disk for my firewall. One day it got rebooted by accident, and it
cracked the @#*@ saying it was missing a superblock, then it just refused to
even look at the disk. Suffice to say it seems to be no longer
useable. No computer or OS will recognise it (although it shows up in the
BIOS). Windows won't look at it while linux hangs on the
partition listing during Kernel startup. That said when i run the IBM
disk tool on it (It's an IBM drive) it says the drive is fine. It reads
and writes to it with no problems. I can even low level format it and
zero all the contents, check for bad sectors you name it it works.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's got me stumped...Any ideas?</FONT></DIV>
