Tuesday morning, I awoke and found this error on my website:
<!--

Dreamhost.com (my service provider) had a slew of corrupt backups (which they did twice an hour), and the only "good" backup they had was from June 5th. They restored that db, but I lost an epic amount of data on both of my websites.
They gave me a tar backup of the databases that produced the above errors. Basically a bunch of MYD and MYI files. I viewed several of them in a hex editor, and they are mostly filled with zeros.
What can I do? Please help, as I'm extremely screwed.
