I've lost partitions after linux has tried to mount them as ext2. Deleting than creating partitions in the same place with your boot disks can recover these, at least sometimes. You can also do the same thing with ext2 partitions when something wrongly deletes them. in either case, though, you have to know where the partition was . . . It's also a last resort, as failure will pretty much preclude any othe attempts. -- Prof. Richard E.
