the front of the drive. mount won't accept the drive
in the condition it's in(says no superblock, or bad
superblock.. different programs, different errors).
If anyone knows how I could get my data off and format
my /var drive, or possibly repair my damaged
superblock at the front of the drive with anyone of
the 50-some backups that exist throughout the drive.
thanks

try

to list the proper superblock backups for the partition.
to fix, use
