Help! I am suspicious that booting my mac after a crash (reseting
and then having it spit out the data disk that was in it before
the crash causes irreversible damage to the disk.  Is this so? I
think I may have destroyed several disks this way and only with
this last one am I now thinking that this resetting may be the
common event.  I also seem to remember vaguely reading somewhere
about bad things if mac expects to find a system but doesn't?
my disk is unreadable, should I try to reformat it or is there
a way to get back the ino? any info or help would be appreciated!
thanks!
