- You _fixed_ it with ReOrg !?!?!?! Thinking of that gives me a picture
- of deciding to end it all because you can't get some bird off your head,
- picking up a gun and preparing to blow one's head off -- and accidentally
- nailing the bird, problem solved!
-
- ReOrg is prone to totally destroying everything when there is even the
- sniff of an error on a drive. I'd love to know how the hell that worked.
-
- On principle, I would still STRONGLY caution against using ReOrg on that
- drive (as does its author in the docs, repeatedly) without first backing
- it up. If you can't back it up, then use all other options first. Try
- Amiback Tools maybe, if you can get a copy.
