Hmm ... if you have made a fs on sdd1, why are you trying to mount sdf1 in your first post? ... or is sdd1 now being recognised by udev as sdf1? I am not sure I can suggest anything better than what you have already tried. I have recovered umpteen reiserfs corruptions with no loss of data so far, by running reiserfsck --fix-fixable, or --rebuild-tree. However, none of these problems were due to a problematic drive or USB cable - your case may be different and recovery less successful. Of course, if you have storage space somewhere else it is always a good idea to use dd to image the partition first before you start your recovery attempts. -- Regards, Mick
