From: vwheeler 

I booted Knoppix and looked at /proc/partitions looks like the extended
partition is corrupt as suspected the primary FAT 510MB looks ok.

  major minor   #blocks   name
     3     0   195360984   hda
     3     1      522081  hda1
     3     2           1  hda2

  I'm Looking for partition recovery tools now the latest Partition
Magic I have is V5 I don't think it works with much over 9G. Anyone have
any suggestions for easy to use (and cheep) hard drive partition recovery
tools? The ones I have found so far are the demo versions of both DFSee and
Partition-Recovery.
