[Helpful description of using low-level utilities to revive a disk]

Before you start a project like this, use Copy II or some other 
copy-anything-that's-there utility to duplicate the damaged disk.
Your first experiment might fail and leave you worse off, so it's
important to have a duplicate on which you can start over.
