Ahh Freeky , Prevously I had /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda2 both as NTFS File system . hda1 was Primary and I think hda2 was Primary file system too . I Formatted hda1 to ext3 and now hda2 which was untouched is showing all free space . Is there anyway i can recover hdb2 . Cheers, Francis

I gave up , Had taken your advice and backed up IMP data , I think all I am gonna miss is this TV Series called LOST2 . Thanks for the Advice . And Moral of the Story "Always Backup Data Before Playing around with disk Geometry". I hope you had better luck . At the end of it all let us know whats a good filesystem to have on the disk taking into consideration "RecoVery"
