fsck.ext2: Is a directorz while trzing to open /
/:
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it realy contains an ext2 fileszstem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and zou might trz running e2fsck with an alternative superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>'
Did you could try that command?

I can't download SBM.  The computer doesn't work to get online and also does not have a floppy drive.

As far as a command, I don't know much about computers (hence the name) so what would I put in for device in e2fsck -b 8193 <device>?

Yeah, that doesn't work.  I think it probably won't end up working anymore.  Oh 1997 Toshiba Tecra, you were good while you lasted.

Thanks for all your help
