[SunHELP] FS crash

I have a corrupted file system in Solaris 5.8.
On running fsck I get the error:

** /dev/dsk/c2t0d5s6
BAD SUPER BLOCK: MAGIC NUMBER WRONG
USE AN ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION;
eg. fsck [-F ufs] -o b=3D# [special ...]
where # is the alternate super block. SEE fsck_ufs(1M).

I ran the newfs -N filesystem to get alternate super block numbers but get 
the same error on trying with atleast 20 of those numbers.

Any guru tips will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

SD
