====================================
this morning I just tried a recovery on the partition after a complete dd
backup of the whole corrupted partition:

# jfs_fsck -v --omit_journal_replay /dev/sdb2
r...@hs-dhgl2b4:~# jfs_fsck -v
jfs_fsck version 1.1.11, 05-Jun-2006

Using default parameter: -p

Stiild couldn't continue.... However, the partition is able to mount Read
Only:

~# mount -o ro -t jfs ./dev/sdb2 /mnt/disk1

ls -lR shown everything seems alright, is it safe to copy as much as I can
to recover the files inside?  How can I recover the jfs metadata if the
actual data are not corrupted. since this is a data partition and there
should be no disk read/write upon system reboot.

Regards,
Samson
