Information

A superblock is a block of data written at the beginning of a partition that contains metadata about the filesystem. If this block becomes corrupted, a ‘Bad Superblock’ message results. 

Solution

There are several backups of this data throughout the hard drive and it can be restored. 

Run ‘chkdsk’ or ‘fsck’ using an alternate superblock.
