- Comprehensive menu-driven Filesystem Navigator that allows repair or patching
- of a damaged file system that ``fsck'' cannot fix. It can locate and
- repair/reconstruct a damaged superblock or damaged inode table. The file system
- can be made mountable so that critical, otherwise unrecoverable data can be
- recovered. The Navigator compliments the ``fsck'' utility and is far more
- powerful than ``fsdb.'
-
- Features include the modification of all superblock and inode data, ability to
- enlarge the size of the lost+found directory, scanning the hard disk for
- orphaned directories, and viewing any block on the hard disk. The superblock
- can be reconstructed if wiped out. Inodes if missing can be reconstructed. The
- navigator can locate critical directories such as ``/usr'' in the directory
- search mode. This can be used on a floppy disk file system as a teaching tool
- to gain first hand experience with the XENIX/UNIX file system. This package is
- available for many filesystem types, including XENIX, UNIX V, and the Acer Fast
- File System.
