------------ From: chymes@fribourg.csmil.umich.edu (Charles Hymes) Path: fribourg.csmil.umich.edu!chymes [Yo! Eater! party on down with this one dude!] Where can I get detailed info on the file block layout under the fast file system? After a series of Hard disk misadventers (yea, I the guy who spent weeks in disk hell) its clear that this info is vital. I want to be able to do things like recover or delete bad files, patch a disk so it will validate, unthrash a munged directory etc. Its almost impossible to use the programs like newzap diskx and such because the fast file system is different from the normal file system, and I have not been able to find a good discription anywhere. Thank you for your support. Charles Hymes
