Have you tried booting off a live cd (like Knoppix) and accessing the partition from there? > table, but I don't know how to recover the good beginning/end of the > partitions (the partitions used for the OS itself seem OK, my linux is > works flawlessly, "only" my last data partitions are not accessible > anymore). All my partitions are ext3. You might want to check out gpart to guess partition beginning/end boundaries. In worst case, you might try an "mke2fs -S" followed by an e2fsck in that drive (chances are you get some data off this one). But overally I don't really think this is an issue caused by a broken partition table. How does cfdisk see the drive in question? Cheers, Kris
