I have heard about a program called fsdb which can be used to hack at file
systems at a low level. Has anyone out there any info on this? Where could I
get hold of it? Our Vax 750 under Ultrix recently crashed after a directory
which ls said was empty was unlinked. Fsck couldn't fix it & we had to do a 
restore of the file system. You guessed it, it was the root file system !
Any info on fsdb would be greatfully received. Thanks in advance.
