>You did do a myisamchk -eoB /var/lib/mysql/*/*.ISM ?

I did do a myisamchk on all my tables, but not exactly with the -eoB option. I am, 
however, sure that the table files themselves are fine.

As a temporary solution I have rebuilt our development server from scratch (fresh 
RedHat install) and placed my old tables (MYI, frm files) in the rebuilt dev server's 
/var/lib/mysql and they work. 

I fear if I have an ungraceful shutdown of MySQL again, even on the rebuilt dev 
server, I'll be right back where I started. I am also serving on a connection that we 
are technically only allowed to use for dev and internal networking (and am out a dev 
server) Hope to get the real server back up soon without having to wipe and fresh 
install RedHat.

Thanks again for your help so far,
Mike
