       -S     Write superblock and group descriptors only.  This is  use-
              ful  if  all  of  the superblock and backup superblocks are
              corrupted, and a last-ditch recovery method is desired.  It
              causes  mke2fs  to  reinitialize  the  superblock and group
              descriptors, while not touching the  inode  table  and  the
              block  and inode bitmaps.  The e2fsck program should be run
              immediately after this option is  used,  and  there  is  no
              guarantee that any data will be salvageable.
