I usually shutdown computer for night (could probaly use software shutdown, but have not yet studied it). In that case, the disk is checked quite often with default settings, usually in those cases I am in hurry and want computer to start up fast :-).

I managed to copy most of 120 GB partition with dd_recover, only something like 600 blocks was unreadable. After 'e2fsck -y' (or would -p been better?) most of important data not found from backups was restored. However, one important file is still missing (an older copy exists so
