Hi,
maybe someone could help me out here:
I have a broken disk with serveral partitions (1-3 primary, 4
extended and 5-6 logical). I am able to get access to the primary
partions and already recovered the data.
I can see all partitions using fdisk -l /dev/hdc.
But I cannot mount the logical ones:
mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc5 /mnt
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc5,
or too many mounted file systems
As fsck don't run, I tried to look for the backup-superblock with
mke2fs -n /dev/hdc5 but it says: Device size reported to be zero. ...
And this is the point where I am lost. Is there still way to mount
this partitions? Many thanks any ideas.
Ingo
You may want to look at debugfs...
