Hello All, I finally recovered all my partitions back! Thanks to all who helped me! (Michael,Anita,Alvin) :) and to Michail Brzitwa who wrote "gpart". :) Thanks are also due to the guys who wrote the "linux partitioning how-to".
For the benefit of others who might face the same, (though I hope not), I ran gpart and got the exact sizes of the partitions involved. Then used fdisk to delete the remaining one logical partition(swap space) and recreated all other logical partitions by giving the exact size reported by gpart. I wrote the partition table to disk, rebooted and mounted those partitions and voila! I have all the data and partitions intact now. Just to add, one of the partitions was a FAT32 one, which was also recovered!! -vikas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
