Hi,
On my file server (Debian Sarge) I have a second HD at 10Gig. This is shared
on Samba, connected to by Windows 2000. It was getting noticeably slower, so
suspecting bad activity, I rebooted. Now the Hard Drive won't mount. It's
being reported as a possible bad superblock and suggests I run this:

e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

For <device> I have replaced it with /dev/hdb1 (the HD in question). No
better though. What now? I don't understand the Hard Drive part...
