] Would need to try to fix header by hand if at all possible.  Data on the 
] disk is corrupted.

] Badly enough that the tools fail.  If you have a core perhaps the tool 
] can be patched to not crash.

/usr/afs/logs includes a corefile.fs from 3/31 but no (recent) core.salv
and no cores from yesterday when the salvager ran.  Any idea where it
might be stashing cores?  or how to force it not to delete them?

] There may be patches in 1.4.7-pre2 that might help.

Let me know how I can use them. (I assume I get the 1.4.6 source
and then find patches on the openafs site somewhere and apply?)
