Data Rescue II worked the best for me after even the Genius bar
couldn't get anything back. I bought and formatted a second hard
drive into my G4 MDD and tried their web site for free. The test
seemed to show that their product would work so I downloaded it and
followed the directions. It worked and they then also sent me the disk.

DiskWarrior is
an excellent repair utility, but recovery is safer than repair
An often over-looked ability of DiskWarrior is that even if you are
unable to write a new directory as part of the repair process, you
may be able to use the new directory that has been created, but not
written, to perform a more complete (more accurate?) recovery of
the data on the partition in question.
