Re: OT: Partition table lost

  Yes, looks like kernel sees it:
# cat /proc/partitions
...
   8 16 194131168 sdb
   8 17 194129428 sdb1

  But none of the fs utilities do (e2fsck, mount, fdisk). There is ext3 filesystem on this partition, how do I get it
back? Is there a specific module(s) I should be looking to tell kernel to make the partition available to the rest of
the system?
