    HDD Problem

    I finaly dist-upgrade'ed my breezy into dapper (Made many mistakes before I did)
    now I have a little problem. I can't mount my hard drive (80 GB, contains messed up Kubuntu, and many personal documents). I tried editing fstab. Here are my results:


    Has anybody got an idea what I did wrong?

    Thanks in advance.

      Code:
      root@Monster:~# mount
/dev/hda5 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/sys on /sys type sysfs (rw)
varrun on /var/run type tmpfs (rw)
varlock on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw)
procbususb on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
devshm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
lrm on /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/volatile type tmpfs (rw)
root@Monster:~# ls -l /media
total 12
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  6 Aug 25 09:03 cdrom -> cdrom0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Aug 25 09:03 cdrom0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  7 Aug 25 09:03 floppy -> floppy0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Aug 25 09:03 floppy0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Aug 25 16:15 home
root@Monster:~#
      I hope that helps.

      BTW, how can I login into KDE from konsole as my user? When I use "startx" I always login as root. This is question has no priority, just wondering

        I think the disk has been damaged


        Any idea how to recover my data?

          In fact the only way I know in linux would be to know the previous config of file, then modify it manually by fdisk, but it's really risky even you know the drive settings
          Once it happened to me and happily I had all this written (almost), so I got back my data like this.

          Another solution is to create a C or shell script to read all bytes from you drive and write in a file, if you know how should start and end a file...

          Good luck

            Lucky me made a backup cd of all most important documents for work.
            Unfortunatly 7GB Of music and 2 GB of clips are lost.

            Nevermind... I'll format the disk

            P.S. Intalling Wine. Soon eMule will bring everything back.

              In this way it's not so bad, then
              BTW, maybe try amule it's exactly like emule, but no need of wine...
