    Just had a crash on my system after trying to play a dvd. My home partition
    refuses to mount and reiserfsck reports an unrecoverable error, possibly bad
    block. Fortunately, I managed to backup my friend's files on CD today just
    before the crash. Unfortunately, my files have not been backed-up. Any
    ideas on

    1) how I could possibly repair my drive.
    2) retrieve some of my data.

    Is there a way using something like ddrescue? Any help would be MUCH
    appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Eddie
