BAD SUPER BLOCK: MAGIC NUMBER WRONG
- I tried to restore leopard - only to find my leopard install disc is corrupt. I tried to make a copy with toast, but that failed, a couple of times
- So I've tried to use disk utility. I try to repair the volume. It gets to 'Checking Catalog file'. Then it gives the messages:
Invalid Key length
Volume check failed
Eror: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
- Then, booting from another leopard disk (for another machine, so I can't install from it), I've been running fsck. It says it can't the superblock, when I make suggestions I get the above message 'Bad super block': magic number wrong'. Any idea where there might be another valid copy of the superblock?
So, I'm a bit stuck. It's really annoying that the leopard disk that I bought doesn't copy and doesn't install.
Any suggestions gratefully received!
