Uh, yes, that should work. But remember to clear the signal you would be
waiting for, since it will get set every time you get switched out. In fact,
you should do that within a Disable():

	Disable();
	   clear signal;
	   Wait(signal<<1);
	Enable();

Signal() can be called safely from supervisor mode, from interrupts, from
everything.

If you were using the old file system on that disk, then perhaps you can use
DiskSalv to recover your files.
