thanks everyone for their insights. I had gone already some steps towards
the strategy suggested by Laurent, so I didn't loose any data. Was
certainly not very wise on my side to use the OS 9 version to repair OS X
directories. So, don't do it folks!
cheers, gianfranco

Not exactley sure what prblem you are thinking of. I like techtool pro.
Just yesterday.
It worked hard, and succeeeded, to repair my volume structures beautifully,

any idea about how to recover without having to re-install? Since I have
access to the partition via the shell when trying to boot on it, there's
perhaps a simple way?
Two more things:
Files on /private/etc/ (such as the affected
master.passwd) are hidden files and I can't access them booting

DiskWarrior has always worked for me and has straightened out many a problem
and has never made things worse. Norton will also work on many problems, but
will eventually find a problem it can not fix, but it will give it a try

Just got the first problematic experience with Panther (TiBook 1 GHz).

File Saver. These were repaired, then I defrag'd and upon re-booting to
X.3.2, I
