<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Maxtor 40 gb drive was mounted as a storage drive
in a Fedora core system.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On a reboot it came up with 'SMART error back
up and replace''</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>At this point it still mounted but most directories
were missing, but kdiskfree show the correct used amount.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now it won't mount at all, but is detectable by the
bios , hdparm reports correct parameters.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mount reports input/output error.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>mount -t ext3 gives 'wrong fs type, bad option, bad
superblock or too many mounted file systems'</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any other tools to rescue this or is it
ferked?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
