slavage options for broken /hdb

[tom schuetz]

I just tried re-installing a slave drive that had been hosed by Mysterious 
Forces(tm) a while back, on the off chance I could salvage it.

Here is the dmesg:

hdb: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hdb: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
hdb: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hdb: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
hdb: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hdb: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
hdb: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hdb: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
ide0: reset: success
hdb: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hdb: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
end_request: I/O error, dev 03:40 (hdb), sector 0


Is this hopeless? gpart doesn't seem to be up to this.

Any ideas would be most appreciated.
