Trying to Recover Corrupted Repo

From: Russ Lewis <webmaster_at_villagersonline.com>

I have a respository on an old HD, and now I am getting "Input/output
error" on a couple of the "revs" files (1204, 1198). I'm about to move
the repo to a new HD, and I'm looking for pointers on the best way to
recover it as I move it.

Right now, I get this:
    # svnadmin dump /path/to/repo > /dev/null
    .... various output lines...
    * Dumped revision 1197.
    svnadmin: Can't read file '/home/russ/svn/db/revs/1198':
Input/output error

Now, I suppose that I could use the -r argument to skip around the 2
corrupted files, but then I would have 3 different dump files. In order
to import those into a new repository, is it as simple as just doing
"svnadmin load" on them in order? Or is there more that I would need to do?

Thanks,
    Russ Lewis
