Hello, Yup did that for a pal once i.e. recover the partition. So long as u don't play around too much, i.e. repartitioning or reinstalling, your data should be valid.
Do you remember the approx sizes of all your partitions? Are the other partitions intact? Do you remember the partition scheme for all your partitions? their sizes? total size of your hard disk? Gpart only works on primary partitions at the moment. Do you remember if your partition was a primary one or logical? Even if it was logical we can still recover it by hand using fdisk. All said and done bottomline is that there will be some trial and error and work involved......if u have backup of data on the partition then it'll probably be better recovering from there.....otherwise is the data worth recovering?? If you do wanna go ahead recovering then I'd recommend you make a copy of your MBR as it stands right now (so you can backtrack) and then try using gpart. If you need help then feel free to holler :) Bye On Thursday 03 Apr 2003 7:58 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > In linux.debian.user, you wrote: > > --u3/rZRmxL6MmkK24 > > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > Content-Disposition: inline > > Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable > > > > I destroyed my partition table with parted.
