Hi users, I was working with GNU parted and got some changes in the partition and the system crashed. I had to freshly install RH Linux 9 again as it didn't detect the linux installation. Now the problem is /dev/hda is mounted but not showing any data files. It has full of data originally. Anyhow Can i recover those data. I didnt format any of the hard drive expect the root partition for fresh installation. Any hope left with me? /dev/hdb had two partitions and it is mounted and detected all files well. The problem is with /dev/hda which has two major partitions /home and /user2. The df commands gives as follows Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 3020140 1675368 1191356 59% / /dev/hda3 50394996 32856 47802184 1% /home none 515096 0 515096 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda4 64191716 32856 60898068 1% /user2 /dev/hdb1 60476036 46272440 11131568 81% /user3 /dev/hdb2 48172868 41662356 4063412 92% /user4 _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
