It is an ext3 filesystem. Think it would be best to make a copy of the disc and I have to find out how to make a raw copy of the partition which I can not mount. When I used e2fsck it told:
You should have made the copy before doing the fsck run, now it is modified, and you can not back from those modifications. image backup: dd if=/dev/hdXY of=image_hdXY And, you can run fsck on the image instead of on the real data, and test out different strategies.
Filesystem revision too high while trying to open /dev/hdd2 The filesystem revision is apparently too high for this version of e2fsck. (Or the filesystem superblock is corrupt)
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
e2fsck -b 8193 it tells me:
You can not simply plug in that number without really knowing before hand that there is a superblock in there. It is an example! - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
