If you give me a list of what DIRS and FILES are in the root directory,
I will be fine. I've already found CMDS, HUH (which now I know is the
"MODULES" directory), NITROS9, SYS, and maybe one other. Not sure if
there was an os9boot there, but I found a "startup".
I used to fix my HD regularly with ded, so really all I need to know if
what to look for.
Basically, format only kills the ROOT directory, so anything under it
is still there and fine -- I just have to remake the entries in root
and point them to their File ID sector. DIRS are easy to find (since
all I do is look for entries where ".." points back to the root FID
sector), but files alone are not since they have nothing for me to
"guess" -- I just have to know what was there and search for it (ie,
looking for text I know would be in a startup file, or such).

See above. Only the root dir is in question ;-)
So, if you could just say:
CMDS
MODULES
NITROS9
SYS
FOO
BAR
startup
read.me
that's really all I need to know. Thanks!
