[ale] recovering an ext3 drive

[James P. Kinney III]

Mike,

It doesn't sound good. It sounds like it is not an ext3 drive. Could it
be reiserfs or XFS or something else?

Try a fdisk to take a look at the partition structure. Be sure not to do
anything other than look around!

Is it possible that the old work drive was just a temp space on a
netboot setup?
