Mike, Is your Mac capable of booting into Mac OS 9? Next question... Do you have a copy of Disk Warrior prior to Disk Warrior X. I think the version was 2.1.x. If you can boot into 9 and have the Disk Warrior CD, try running it from there. Otherwise, I'm stumped. Please let us know how this situations pans out. Good luck.
