Subject: Lost HD Partition
Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2006 11:40:30 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <44995A5E.2030004@skyinet.net> (raw)

For some reason I cannot access my important /usr/local hard drive 
partition.

mount /mnt/hda6
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda6,
missing codepage or other error

# /sbin/fdisk /dev/hda6 -p

Disk /dev/hda6: 1998 MB, 1998710784 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3872 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
----------
The drive has/had ext3 which information apparently got lost

How could I access this drive again and remake it ext3 w/o losing the data?

What other info is needed?

Thanks & regards


Peter
