Greetings. I just had a RAID crash which required some recovery with fsck_ffs. Two problems with fsck_ffs in 5.2 were discovered: 1. There is a divide-by-0 error that happens under some conditions when the contents of the superblock and the backup superblock are partially damaged. =>Would you like a fix for this? 2. There is no obvious functionality to scan the whole hard-drive for backup superblocks. => I've written such a program. If I integrate it into fsck, will you take the mods? -Simson Garfinkel
