I had a 60 gig IDE hard drive that was full of business data overwritten
when upgrading a system to fbsd 4.5  The newfs program was executed on the
drive, and (i assume) that the file system table was overwritten.  I do
not think the drive was completely formatted, because the process took
less than 30 seconds.  Is there a way to reverse this process and get the
old fs table back, or rebuild it..i really need the data.  Any
suggestions/comments would be well appreciated.
