I had a lot of success defining the entire disk as swap device (e.g. dasda) when the root file system was on the first partition (dasda1). With the partition layout gone the block numbers don't match either so fsck got nowhere. I suppose I should have tried to make a new partition but no filesystem and see if fsck gets it back. Rob
