-what disk?
5.25? 3.5? HD?
For 5.25 Apple disks there _might_ be a chance to recover data from
damaged sectors using CIA - especially if You know the type of data
that should be on the disk. read in the raw nibbles and try to de-
nibbilize ignoring the checksum. Locate the faulty nibble(s).
Muck about with them (checksum should help) until sector decodes fine.

Good Luck
