What was the output of the "p" command?
Is the problem with the disk or with the partition? The "o" command
creates a new partition table.
p will print nothing because i delete all the partition using d command.
i never aware of o command because i use n to create new partitions.
I hate to suggest this >donning fire-retardant suit< but you might
borrow a WinXP machine long enough to run the Computer Management disk
tool on your disk. It can often make a disk work that was munged by
something. It is not a very good or comprehensive tool, and I would
only recommend trying it if you are desperate. Similar comments can be
made about other tools.
Still, go to the disk manufacturer's website and look for a tool to use.
If the disk is 250 GB or smaller, a DOS-based tool may work. (320 GB
and up don't respond to int13 commands, so it takes a non-DOS tool for
larger drives). You can burn a bootable CD and run the tool.
I'm sure that if it an be fixed at all, it can be fixed in Debian.
However, you may be getting tired of fighting it. Consider it a
learning experience.
