the filesystem is ext3 made by gparted in ubuntu desktop 7.10
I have there data and I dont want to lost them
Have you tried what it suggested you? Copy the (spare) superblock 8193 with e2fsck
e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda1
What is weird is that you say you unmounted the disk. I am surprised this disk could be mounted in the first place if the first superblock is damaged.

I am little affraid of lost data, is that safe?
I need before executing that command umount disk or leave it mounted?
breathing is not safe will all the pesticide in the air...
I do not understand how your /dev/sda1 can be mounted with a bad first superblock.
Please confirm that /dev/sda1 is really mounted.
mount | grep sda1

/dev/sda1 on /media/WD1TB type ext3 (rw)
not just pesticides, breathing oxygen is causing olding biological system(creating free radicals O, OH, that destroy mitochondria - later cell, problems with reparation of DNA that leads to mutations in genome -that leads to - the apoptosis of damaged cell):D
So can you access what is on the partition?
If yes, it is time to make backup of your data and then try the e2fsck -b...
James Dupin
paste your /etc/fstab by the way please.
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdb /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/sda1 /media/WD1TB ext3 defaults 0 0
I changed 6. column to 0(not to check after bootup.
indeed the move I was to propose you.
doesn't solve the problem but is less annoying.
Anyway back up your data and:
e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda1
if it is stil not working then reformat will be the only solution I can suggest you (it is maybe not the only one that exists, but the only one I can think of with my limited knowledge)
