I have a somewhat scrambled Fujitsu-330 disk on an MC-5500/RTU-3.1,
which I want to mount in order to save what data I can.  However, "mount"
complains about a bad superblock and won't mount the disk.

Does anyone know what sanity checks "mount" makes, or perhaps more
importantly, which superblock fields are important to fix with "fsdb"
before trying to mount and read this disk?
