 Hi all

 Does anyone know a good CD/DVD recovery software for Linux?

Try ddrescue (http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html) or 
dd_rescue (http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ddrescue/). These different 
(but similar) tools can be used to recover files from corrupted CD/DVD 
media. I've tried both and they work quite well.

On Fedora, you can do:
yum install dd_rescue ddrescue
to install both packages.

[fsug-tvm] Re: filesystem got corrupted after filesystem check.........

  Detailed information on how to use smartmontools and analyze its
 output are available on following pages:
 http://blog.shadypixel.com/monitoring-hard-drive-health-on-linux-with-smartmontools/
 http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6983


  Smartmontool shows many such parameters - along with their
 thresholds. If a parameter drops below its threshold, it indicates bad
 health. Some parameters indicate impending disaster if they fall below
 their threshold. Others indicate gradual degradation due to poor
 environment. Anyway, its is useful for assessing and predicting
 failures. I hope this becomes useful to you. Please let us know about
 your experiments with it.

Thanks, Goul, for these bits of information. I am travelling riight
now - Onam vacation, you know :-) I will loo into these after I return
and get back to you.
