Last time I used DiskWarrior 3 to repair damage done by a nasty crash it let me down. You will never guess what saved me... Booting into single user mode and running fsck. It sounds old fashioned, but it worked. My directory was repaired properly and everything was back in place when I rebooted. So, what I would suggest is trying all the repair routines that you can lay your hands on, but start with the Panther Install disk and Disk Utilities or use the Single User mode and run the fsck routine (same thing really). jg
