At the risk of digressing clear off the map, in the early 80's I used
to manage a PDP-11/45 Unix v7 system (with BSD 2.7 mods) that
supported 500 active accounts for the university Computer Science
program. This system was highly modified and would crash about once
every 2 weeks and would stomp on the superblock of one or more
filesystems during the crash. The only way to fix it was to use "adb"
to edit the raw disk device and poke in enough numbers into the
superblock so that fsck could reconstruct the filesystem and the rest
of the superblock. With all those students and faculty waiting.....
making nose-prints on the glass of the Computer Center windows.....
watching.....
Now that's real editing.
