My Great Linux System Repair Adventure
,----[ Quote ]
| Thunder storms in the Blue Ridge Mountains can come fast. That's why my
| main Linux desktop system was still up when one, two, three lightning
| bolts slammed near my home. Thus began my Great Linux System Repair
| Adventure.
|
| [...]
|
| My point in telling you of my misadventure is that, with a little
| knowledge and Linux tools, which SystemRescueCD brings together for
| you, you can save your files even from apparently hopeless situations.
|
| Oh, and a final note: SystemRescueCD can also work the same magic on
| your Windows systems. I can't recommend this mini-distribution enough
| for anyone who might face repairing any Unix, Linux, or
| Windows-based computer.

Apart from free (and Free) tools, there are commercial ones.
