I think it is hardware (USB-to-SATA?) failure. I had same problem few months ago. I think arno has two options here: 1. Ether to try to restore its partition table w/ fdisk or whatever tool - it will be quiet easy if there was single partition. 2. Try w /data recovery tools - in my experience far harder and improper way of restoration in such a case. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
