The first thing to do is see if the sector
numbers make any sense.  First,
multiply them by 512 and see if they're
still 31-bit numbers.  If not, you need
to change devio.c thusly:

g% diff /n/dump/2000/0601/sys/src/cmd/dossrv/devio.c devio.c
38c38
< 	seek(xf->dev, xf->offset+addr*Sectorsize, 0);
---
> 	seek(xf->dev, xf->offset+(vlong)addr*Sectorsize, 0);
57c57
< 	seek(xf->dev, xf->offset+addr*Sectorsize, 0);
---
> 	seek(xf->dev, xf->offset+(vlong)addr*Sectorsize, 0);
g%

If that's not the problem, make sure you
actually can read from those sectors:

dd -if /dev/sdC0/dos -bs 512 -count 9 -iseek sectornumber >/dev/null
