Its also possible that drive wasnt destroyed physically, but hdd electronics. I saw many similar problems with barracudas with destroyed electronic by shitty power adaptors(like LC&C, codegen, rubikon, deer, tracer). And the simplest way to restore data is to buy new eletronic, and sometimes is possible to mirror it(without errors) after disabling DMA.

I've never run fsck on the harddrive. I've rescued it, then run fsck on the image. If you had read more carefuly, this is exactly what i did: dd_rescue then worked on the image.

My ibook is mid-2004 :/

How old is the iBook? They've had sudden motion sensors since mid-2005 to supposedly prevent this sort of thing

Running fsck on a drive with known defective sectors is a sure recipe for disaster. In fact, writing anything to a drive you are trying to rescue data from is a bad idea. dd_rescue to a known working drive should be the very first command to run.
