Ok here is the situation

I have an old P-III 500. It doesn't have a bootable cd drive. I was able to put SuSe on it. I believe 10.2 is the version

ususe1:~ # uname -a
Linux suse1 2.6.18.2-34-default #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I had four drives in it.

First drive had the OS
Drives 2,3, and 4 were configured as one drive using LVM

suse1:~ # cat /etc/fstab
/dev/hda1			/					ext3	   acl,user_xattr		1 1
/dev/hda2			/home				ext3	   acl,user_xattr		1 2
/home/swapfile1	  swap				 swap	   defaults			  0 0
/home/swapfile2	  swap				 swap	   defaults			  0 0
proc				 /proc				proc	   defaults			  0 0
sysfs				/sys				 sysfs	  noauto				0 0
debugfs			  /sys/kernel/debug	debugfs	noauto				0 0
usbfs				/proc/bus/usb		usbfs	  noauto				0 0
devpts			   /dev/pts			 devpts	 mode=0620,gid=5	   0 0
/dev/fd0			 /media/floppy		auto	   noauto,user,sync	  0 0
#/dev/vm/vmspace	  /virtual			 ext3	   acl,user_xattr		1 2
suse1:~ #

One of the drives that made up /dev/vm/vmspace failed and naturally I did not have backups.

I need to recover what I can from the two drives that are left. I found some information about e2salvage but I don't fully understand it. Any help that can be given to recovery what is left would be appreciated
