A couple of weeks ago, I went begging to the net for advice on fixing
a particular broken disk.  I promised to post the results.

Response has been good, but not stunning.  Those who have replied were
helpful, and two sent me software to help out.

I intend to wait about another week, to allow time for long propagation
delay and some experimentation.  Then I'll post the summary, and
the best of the software.

Hang in there.
