Thanks, Eric, that's exactly what I've done.
:-)
Unfortunately there are many different error conditions that could result in
an "invalid superblock" message and it seems like it would be a hard job (at
least for me!) to work out which one it was as I don't know how to compile a
package or even how to get the right source code for Puppy Linux (which I
think is almost Debian compatible).
I guess this is going off-topic now and I should ask on other lists for help
with that?
Any assistance appreciated.
David
