Yes Cory, that is the command that I used. Don't recall if I used
additional flags. It certainly wasn't destructive for me as I had lost
my partition anyway. The only things I didn't recover were approx. 2% of
my photos and my email disappeared. Otherwise I was very happy.
I just checked the documentation out again. Accessed through kpackage.
It's at /usr/share/doc/reiserfsprogs/reiserfschck.html on my system. It
does strongly encourage backup of the partition before running the above
command. You may want to look at the other options first though e.g.
--fix-fixable.I have used Reiser for about 3 years and never had a
problem with the fs as such, just my own stupidity.
Good Luck

Mel Broadhurst
