Hmmm.  Doesn't look pretty, Raymond!  You've got 4.6GB of data and just
1K of indexes now.

Step ZERO - make a backup copy of the files you have NOW, in case any
repair operations you try make things worse.

On the bright side, your data file (.MYD) should sitll be intact - it's
just the index file (.MYI) that's hosed.  At a high level, you're going
to want to rebuild that index file.  How - is a little trickier.
 See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/repair.html

I expect you'll want to look at the section titled "Stage 3: Difficult
repair" because the first part of your index file is in fact destroyed.

Good luck!

Dan
