I recently installed Debian Testing (Sarge kernel 2.4.27-i386) on an IBM 
Thinkcentre.  After several days running, the filesystem suddenly got 
corrupted.  The symptoms were that some binaries would not run.  When I checked 
the logs, I remember seeing "kernel: illegal seek or out of range errors". I 
vaguely remember.  But my impression was that the kernel could not read the 
partition.  I turned off the PC and tried rebooting but grub would no longer 
boot.  LNX-BBC's fdisk can no longer recognise any partition.

It has been a while since I researched on partition recovering tools.  I would 
appreciate any new ones that you may have tried.

Thanks.
