Actually, I had tried that.  here is the output:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] sr]# fsck -r /dev/hdc2
fsck 1.27 (8-Mar-2002)
e2fsck 1.27 (8-Mar-2002)
Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks...
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hdc2

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

I am beginning to wonder if I really had put any data there...  I just 
want to be able to make sure before I wipe it out.
