Date: 7 Nov 1995 08:46:42 GMT Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 12 Message-ID: <47n6di$gmf@mordred.gatech.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: wrekquest.ohr.gatech.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I have a freebsd 2.0.5 system with a drive that went south. From what I can tell the first sectors got hosed. I need to find a way to figure out were the partions lie. I have in an intact state. I was able to go through w/nortons disk edit and look at the data. It appears to be ok. I just wondered if there were pattern I could look for and find the boundries. Any help is appreciated. All I really need back is the /home filesystem, the other data was backed up recently enough. thanks, eric buckhalt eric@wrekquest.gatech.edu
