No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]

New Re: HUH?
As a reply to a question about superblocks and their associated pain, you give a one-liner explanation with no comments. Look up the word "glib".

Why don't you explain how to use an alternate superblock, in case this happened on a *live* file system?

-drl
New Better idea.
Why don't YOU explain how to use an alternate superblock, instead of whining?

New Ahhh, yeah. *I* built this machine he
Was posting the problem from.

I know how it is setup.

This COMPLETELY wipes the Part-table and forces a re-init of the filesystem.

WTF are YOU Bitching about. It was a FAT32/NTFS filesystem that was abandoned in proc of installation.

Go away.

as well, glib *COULD* be interpreted as "gee-lib"... I know WTF "GLIB" means...
