It's whorst than expected. I booted the system with a Centos 5.6 boot disc in rescue mode and when it's time to search for linux partition on the system hard disk I get a message telling that there is no partition on that disk.

So what's next to recover

I would download Parted Magic from http://partedmagic.com/doku.php?id=downloads

Copy it to a CD.

Boot from that CD. It runs in RAM.

After setting the screen size form an icon on the left side, run GPARTED which will give you a clearer understanding of your hard disk drive.

Good Luck,

Paul.
