Ok, so I fucked up.  Here's what happened on my NeXTstation.

I was all set to initialize a floppy, when some mail arrived.
I answered the mail, then went up to disk-> Initialize

Well, since the floppy wasn't the active disk, I was soon
horrified to see the "Initializing Internal Hard Disk" message.

Panic set in as I did the old command~. 

Now when I boot, I get the following error message:

boot sd(0,0,0)
booting SCSI target 1, lun 0
blk0 boot: sd()sdmach
Booting from SCSI target 1 lun0
sd()sdmach: read error
Booting from SCSI target 1 lun0
sd()sdmach: read error
Can't load blk0 boot


Any ideas ?  Sounds to me like I nuked blk0.

Help!!!!
