A few methods have already been mentioned.
Another method that I recently employed while implementing support for repairing
index B+trees was to add support for the feature to the bfs_shell, and then work
on an image. This has the shortest turn around times, and is rather convenient
to work with. Additionally, it will work on Haiku as well as on Linux, and does
not involve mounting.
