So I'm now on CentOS 5 and my old /home > hard drive is completely history. :) You likely overwrote your PT. See my other post. If you can recover your PT, you'll likely get your data back. Before fiddling like this always (1) make a complete backup of your system (2) display and archive your PTs using fdisk or similar (3) make complete copies of your MBRs on each disc, and BRs for each partition. Mike -- p="p=%c%s%c;main(){printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34);} Oppose globalization and One World Governments like the UN. This message made from 100% recycled bits. You have found the bank of Larn. I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you. I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
