I'm in bad situation. I have two physical disks. First (DiskA) have 200GB and second (DiskB) have 160GB capacity. On DiskB I have Linux partitions and some data partitions. On DiskA I had had 40GB NTFS (Windows) and 160GB NTFS partitions (data), but I already deleted Windows partition. So, I copied data from 160GB partition on DiskA to temporary space on DiskB, then I deleted remaining NTFS partition on DiskA and created one 200GB ext3 partition (I think so. In cfdsik I chose partition type '83 Linux') and then formatted it 'mke2fs -j /dev/sdb1'. Then I copied (moved :( ) all the data back to DiskA and everuthing was fine. It was yesterday. Today I started PC and at startup init said "Some local filesystems failed to mount". OK, in /etc/fstab I have "/dev/sdb1 /mnt/zaloha ext3 noatime 0 2" ... it seems to be good. I also tried to change ext2, but with both 'mount -a' says: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so. In /var/log/messages I found just "VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sdb1" :((. When I try just 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/zaloha', at /mnt/zaloha I have mounted that old Windows partition that I already deleted. Do you know any solution how can I get back my ext3 partition to get back my data please? And what could be cause of this problem or when I can find what is the cause? Thanks very very much. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
