Hello. I have Mac OS X 10.4 and Gentoo Linux dual-boot with yaboot on my
iBook/G3. Today I accidentally destroyed /dev/hda2, the Mac OS boot
partition, by using:

# mke2fs /dev/hda2

Is there a way to recover? If Mac OS X boot partition is pretty
standard, I guess I should be able to recover just by asking someone in
the mailing list to send an image of that partition and recover the
image. The following is my partition layout

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo mac-fdisk -l /dev/hda
