I missed second paragraph output in previous post,
--------------------------------------------------------------------
root at 1[~]# fsck /dev/sda4
fsck 1.38-WIP (09-May-2005)
e2fsck 1.38-WIP (09-May-2005)
Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks...
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda4

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

root at 1[~]#
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The second para seams to suggest something, that I do not feel
confident to attemp.
