Hi !

I've got a Linux server with failed 2-disk software RAID (and valuable data). 
fsck.ext3 tries to check it on startup but fails with "Unrecovered Read 
Error - Auto  reallocate failed" errors. Looks like some blocks gone bad.

fstab entries looks reads:

/dev/md0   /home  ext3  acl, user_xattrs
/dev/sda1  /data2  ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda2  /data3  ext3 defaults 1 1

First of all, I could not figure out - is this software RAID 0 or RAID 1 (it 
is not mountable so I cannot figure out MD0 refers to RAID device number not 
to its level)? if this is RAID 1 I can simply remove HDs one by one and 
eliminate one with bad blocks. If this is RAID 0, situation seems to be 
worse.


Anyone have any idea how to recover it?

Now I am running "fsck.ext3 -p -v -c /dev/md0", but its seems it cannot 
eliminate bad blacks.


Anyone have any idea what to do next?

Thanks in advance for any suggestion(s)
