tool to recover SFS formated HD

[Damion]

Hi Lio,

It probably gave the same message when you
saved the new filesystem the first time, only
now you are paying closer attention.
Anyhow reinstalling the old filesystem won't
cause anymore harm, it would seem most likely
to fix it (if that's indeed the problem).

Also, make sure you didn't bump around the
partition size a bit by accident (I've done
that before!), if so restoring it to the exact
same location should cure it.

Good luck!

Do you think that the fact I changed only the filesystem on one partition (the boot) would explain why my amiga keeps resetting ?
Lio

Yes.

If the parition which is damaged has the highest
boot priority on your hard disk (highest
numer in HDToolbox, I'm  guessing
set to 1 since it's your boot device)
then yes beacaue it will continue attempting
to boot from that parition, no matter what,
unless you select otherwise in the "Early
Startup", or have a bootable floppy in DF0.

Floppy drives are usually given the highest
boot priority at 5, while main boot partitions
should normally be set to 1.

Lio, I agree with Thomas the best way to handle
the situation is to reinstall the old
filesystem. It will not damage the volume any
further, and really should resolve your issues.
