By FDISK output, it looks like it is not ext3 partition, but a physical volume controlled by LVM, so you should use LVM tools to find real data (vgscan, vgdisplay, pvscan, lvscan, ...) the ext3 partition you are looking for is probably on logical volume on that LVM... -- Opinions above are GNU-copylefted. _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
