Trying to Recover Corrupted Repo

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,
