@crowgirl having been in this position before, I would say the first thing to do, before anything, is image that drive. Use dd or something to make a copy of it before doing anything. That way you can try risky things without worrying.

@90sScriptKiddiw I really hate to do this. But can you point me to instructions for doing that?

@crowgirl If you get stuck or anything hit me up and I'll do what I can to help, I'm around for the next couple of hours and more or less all day tomorrow. I'm not a Linux expert but I've been running a Debian server for a few years and have gotten out of my share of jams.
