bad block in reiserfs
I have a reiserfs file system on a hard disk which won't mount. Various investigations with reiserfsck and debugreiserfs indicate one or more bad blocks, looks like they are used for fs bitmaps. I've tried --rebuild-tree but it can't get past this bad block, and if I give reiserfsck a list of bad blocks, it says it cannot reallocate because the first bad block is part of the file system. But it seems most of the data is there. Any ideas how I can get at it - this disk had a backup for another home disk which has died, so I really do need to get whatever data back that I can. Thanks for any help
