Hello Linuxers!
After upgrading to ex2fs and partitioning my disks (reduce DOS part.,
increase linux root, increased swap, but DIDN'T changed my second minix
partition I can't more access my minix partition.
Now fdisk says:
Disk /dev/hda: 12 heads, 35 sectors, 989 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 420 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Begin Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 1 342 71802+ 6 DOS 16-bit >=32M
/dev/hda2 797 797 983 39270 5 Extended
/dev/hda4 343 343 796 95340 83 Linux extfs
/dev/hda5 797 797 954 32969+ 81 Linux/MINIX <<this is it
/dev/hda6 954 954 983 6282+ 82 Linux swap
Command (m for help): v
Partition 5: previous sectors 400293 disagrees with total 400656
2520 unallocated sectors
mount says:
(root)~#mount /dev/hda5 /user
mount: Unknown error 26240
fsck says:
(root)~#fsck -v /dev/hda5
fsck: bad magic number in super-block
what is wrong there.
I need my data back, can anyone help me?
