RT-11: ?DIR-F-Invalid directory

NO!!!! I just tried to run a SYSGEN on my RT-11 system, and I seem to have
lost the filesystem when it started to rebuild the system. I'm able to
boot to another partition (gotta love that WQESD controller), and I get the
following results:

.dir du2: <-DU2: is my main RT-11 disk

?DIR-F-Invalid directory

.

Please tell me there is a way to recover (unfortuanlty I doubt there is).
I wasn't smart enough to make backups and everything I've been working on
was on that partition.

I'm seriously bummed. However, I finally got smart and made a bootable
TK-50 so if need be I can load RT-11 without to much difficulty (other than
having to type in the bootstrap by hand).

First I can't get TCP/IP to work, and now this.... :^( Looks like once I
get everything back together I'll be starting on that from scratch, which
might be good.
