Can someone hint me if the data is still intact before I start with the recover? The disks (4) are configured in raid5 configuration using software raid only. Disk setup: Per disk: 1 GB system, 1 GB swap, 70GB raid space Only one system disk (I think that is exactly the disk which gave up, so the machine won't boot), installed on it: Suse 8.2 professional, standard kernel without changes to it. I don't have any further information than this :-(
