Drive gone bad

[John Smith]

Hi all,

	yep, I've one, 'controller failure' once every few reboots, can still 
access the drive
though and want to save some stuff. 'rescue root=/dev/hda2' works fine, but 
the ext3
filesystem seems to be damaged: 'EXT3-fs: can't find group descriptor' plus 
read errors
on a sector.

	Anybody any hints on how to proceed from here? How do I boot without 
mounting anything
and trying to run something (fsck?)

Sincerely,

Jan.
