I am an idiot.

Hi guys...

Yes I am an idiot.  I was changing the chunk size of my RAID5 array
last night from 64kb to 256kb and left it running overnight.  During
the night we had a power outage.

This is where the idiot part comes in.  The backup file is on a
filesystem that's part of the RAID5 array, so obviously I am unable to
start it.  I completely forgot the filesystem I specified for
--backup-file was part of the same array.

Once you're all done pointing and laughing, can you let me know if I
am totally screwed?  I've a lot of data here that I -really- don't
want to lose...

Please help..

Idiot.

Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.
