Title: How to mount SME 7 partition fd type with ext3 file system
Post by: bojo@chambersz.com on January 27, 2007, 02:52:21 AM

I'm trying to mount my old IDE disk with SME 7.0 on other PC with the same version of SME.
Let say, the old disk is connected as hdc - there are 2 partitions - hdc1 /boot/ and hdc2 /root/.
The new one is hda and there are hda1 and hda2. On hda2/root/ there are /mnt/my-old-disk.

   mount /dev/hdc2 /mnt/my-old-disk

asks me about file system type. It is ext3 /mount shows me that/ .

   mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc2 /mnt/my-old-disk

shows me "wrong type, bad superblock...etc....".

   fdisk -l

tells mi that partition type is  fd /Linux raid autodetect/
dmraid -an doesn't helps me...
How to mount and access this type of file system /even read-only :))/? I need to transfer a lot of data on my new disk!
Thanks in advance!
