svn: No such string 'w'

Hello svn,

I'm writing my diplom thesis and my svn reposity is broken, can't
'svnadmin dump' , tried to revover by every methods found in mailing list
and on google

I don' have any other possibilites to try... that the end!

P.S.: I have a backup of very early revision r0-r60
      now my reposity is at r200 ... between r60-r200 there are so
      many important commit and comments - hope they aren't lost...

Here's my log of tries...
