Last night, my aging micropolis 1.5 gig drive decided to scramble itself. "Self," I think, "Just boot up off the boot and root disks, and fsck the root partition back into order." A noble thought, but to my utter dismay, I found out that the boot/root set doesn *not* have fsck on it! Does anyone have a rescue-type boot set that can be incorporated into the Debian distribution? I actually had to install the base floppy set onto a little used partition on another drive, and then boot off that to get fsck. Found that the root inode is gone due to sectors 0,1,2, and 3 being NFG.. time to re-lowlevel and pray...
