Well, gang, for about the only time in ten or eleven years, my

Or is all hope lost?

If it's only the data you want, try a FreeSBIE boot disk. That will
give you access to the file system/network, so you can recover your
data.


Where can I get this FreeSBIE boot disk? Is it a floppy or can I
burn a CDROM? I have a "burner" on my new Ubuntu box, but have
never burned anything but an audio CD.

This is one of the myriad things I've never heard of,
but sounds like it should be shipped with each CD boxed
set...
