hda1 Boot Primary Linux 4194.90
hda2 Primary Linux ext2 [/home] 526.42
hda3 Primary Linux 3668.48
hda5 Logical Linux 271.44
Logical Free Space 0.04*
hda6 NC Logical Linux 271.41*
Logical Free Space 0.04*
hda7 NC Logical Linux 271.41*
Logical Free Space 0.04*
hda8 NC Logical Linux ext2 1052.81*
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1247 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
now /dev/hda2 can be recognize and the data still exist, but the others can't
