    That's what AOL disks (vs. discs) used to be good for. :)

    Yeah. Starts to suggest what we were thinking was a evidence related to the
    problem is really unrelated and "normal" behavior (is disklabel/bsdlabel
    only meant to be run on slices and not bsd-partitions?). Are we looking in
    the wrong place? What about that potentially good superblock we found a
    while ago? (the skip 16 one that contained "/data" in it) Should we be
    saving that somewhere while we can? (how?)

    Anyone out there know 5.x file-system dirtiness like the back of their hand?
    C'mon, you know you wanna join the fun. :)

    Where's my time machine so I can go back and back up this drive... ah well
    I'm learning a ton.
