Hi!

While trying to mount an ffs-partition, I get the following:
# mount -t ffs /dev/wd3a /mount
mount_ffs: /dev/wd3a on /mount: incorrect super block

Fscking results in:
#fsck -t ffs /dev/wd3a
** /dev/rwd3a
BAD SUPER BLOCK: CAN'T FIND SUPERBLOCK

Here is the disklabel:
4 partitions:
#        size   offset   fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]
 a: 156301488        0   4.2BSD      0     0     0  # (Cyl.     0 - 155060)
 d: 156301488        0   unused      0     0        # (Cyl.     0 - 155060)
disklabel: boot block size 0
disklabel: super block size 0

Is there any way to restore the data from that drive?

Thanks in advance!
