Hi, I've been foolish enough to let Partition-Magic move/resize/etc. my partitions without a prior backup. My ext3 /dev/hda7 (was RH 9) is no longer recognised by fsck. I tried fsck -b 8139, 32768 and 65536 - but am not quite sure about if these are the right ones to try. So far I created another partition with same number of blocks and did a backup with dd if=/dev/hda7 of=/dev/hda8 tried mke2fs -S /dev/hda8 fsck.ext3 -y /dev/hda8 but this one generates a zillion of errors and quits when it's fed up. Did I forget to specify block-size (or the like) to dd, or is that my data is plain wiped ? Or is there still other things to try? Quite sad I lost about 1 year of emails ;( ________________________________________ Université de Nantes, http://www.univ-nantes.fr _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
