hmmmmm.... I can't cut a break I tell ya! I started system rescue cd and
see an option to 'Boot an exhisting Linux OS installed on the disk.' I
select it and it says, 'Attempting to mount <partition>' (6 differant
partitions) and then '!!!Cannot find a valid root filesystem....'
I'm running your dd command right now and it has been running like 2
minutes.

Yep.... I think I had a hard disk failure. I restarted my computer and was
presented with:
error: unknown filesystem.

I then typed 'ls' and the response was
(hd0) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos1) (fd0)
which is two partitions, the swap drive, and the floppy disk
how do I verify my suspicion of drive failure?
funny how all this happened just as I was attempting to back it up.
