Hello, I tried to install Windows ME to a hard drive with an existing Debian system. During the install the system insisted on formatting drive "C", and since I had created an extra primary partition marked bootable to be "C" under Linux I figured why not. After reaching 100% the install said formatting failed and quit.
Fine, so I try to boot back to Linux but get the "No operating system" instead. Booting to Knoppix I found the partition table totally screwed up. I managed to get back /home and /usr partitions using gpart, but it seems the / partition has been partly overwritten. e2fsck gives the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] e2fsck -n /dev/hda1 e2fsck 1.34-WIP (21-May-2003) Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks... Superblock has a bad ext3 journal (inode 377). Clear? no e2fsck: Illegal inode number while checking ext3 journal for /dev/hda1 Any ideas how to recover the partition? Or should I just wipe it, after all, the most important stuff (i.e. /home) seems to be safe? Thanks in advance. ..............................................................
