I tried this, but its results was an error message. :-(

The only boot disk that I have is the one of Debian Installation.
Do you believe that its root disk hasn't the e2fsck program? Can
you send this program attached in a reply, or say where can I find
it? I'll mount my W95 partition with the program in it, and will
attempt to use it...

Can you tell me how to do it? I think the problem is in the
first superblock, but don't know how to use another superblocks.

Now, a stupid question :-) How can I check that everything is
ok? I don't have books about Linux or Unix, and the little
things that I learned was with the 'man' command. With my poor
english, that was a true "Mission: Impossible" ;-)
Thanks again!
