Oh, I seem to be able to mount it ok; the swap partition for my slackware
system is on that disk on a different partition and it is going ok so
far. But I can't boot from it. And I just tried to use my Slackware
system to tar my home directory on the SuSE system so I could move it
over, and tar choked on one of Netscapes cache directories, saying it was
getting a short read and padding with zeros. I am going to try it again,
this time only pulling off my school work and some other files I don't
want to lose. I will also pull off the /etc directory, and then probably
try a reformatting with Partition Magic or something else.
