Morning guys/gals,
Am in bit of a soup here. I have an ext3 disk at a clients place of which one of the partitions has gone kaput.
Essentially they are as follows:
hdb1 : /boot hdb2 : / hdb3 : Swap
/boot is mountable while / isn't. I have used the knoppix rescue cd and have tried to mount the partition but it gives me and error with the superblock. When i try mounting using the mount command i get an error saying that mount partition can't be recognised.
Just last week this issue had come up. I asked the client to pull out the IDE cables, clean the machine and plug them in. By the grace of god, the partition got mounted again. This time around lady luck seems to have failed me.
I am quite lost for a solution to the same. If anyone could pass one some suggestions to help recover the production data on the disk i would be highly obliged.
Trevor
