Hi, Sorry, but my english is too bad for writing this Text. So I hope some German users can help me with this problem ich hab da n Problemchen und hoffe einer von euch könnte mir aus der Patsche helfen.
Hi,
Sorry, but my english is too bad for writing this Text. So I hope some German users can help me with this problem
ich hab da n Problemchen und hoffe einer von euch könnte mir aus der Patsche helfen.
Hab bei mir auf der Boot Platte zwei Partitionen gehabt. 40gb Maxtor. Erste Partition 15gb "Primär", zweite 25gb "Logisch". Dann dachte ich mir mal Suse Linux 8 drauf zu tuen und habe die zweite Partition mit Partition Magic v7 n bischen weiter verschoben und damit 5gb zwischen diesen beiden Partitionen frei gelassen wo sich dann Linux seine Partitionen dann erstellt hatte.
Gestern hab ich an das IDE Kabel eine zweite (neue) Festplatte drangehängt und hab sie mit PM7 partitioniert und Formatiert. Danach kam bei meiner Boot Festplatte beim Start n Fehler. Hab sie dan mit Norton Disk Doctor von Boot CD gescant und der zeigte mir irgend ein Fehler im Boot Sector den ich auch reparieren liess.
Seit dem Komm ich gar nicht mehr auf die Festplatte drauf. PM7 zeigt mir den Fehler #116 an und im Fdisk zeigt er mir auf einmal 4 "No-Dos" Partitionen (1. 4%, 2. 6%, 3. 9%, 4. 81%, die stimmen gar nicht mit meinen überein)
Daher meine Frage: Mit welchen Programmen und wie kann ich das wenigstens so ausbügeln das ich auf die erste Partition zugreifen könnte?
Ps. Habe ein MSI KT3 Ultra Board

My German is not that good.
Rough translation
I think that you are saying that you have a 40GB Maxtor hard disk. Using Partition Magic 7 you partitioned the hard disk into a Primary 15GB and a Logical second partition of 25GB. This left a 5GB free area. When you installed Linux, it installed itself into the 5GB free area.
This next part was difficult to translate. Either you replaced some cables or added a second hard disk, but when you ran Partition Magic on your present hard disk, you noted that there were errors on the boot drive and used Norton Disk Doctor to correct them.
Now Partition Magic reports that you have 4 nonDos partitions occupying 4% 6% 9% and 81% of the disk.
Something to try first:
Run Partinfo from Partition Magic:
1. Select Start > Programs > PowerQuest PartitionMagic > PartitionInfo. (If you are using ServerMagic or VolumeManager under Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000, select Start > Programs > PowerQuest ServerMagic (or VolumeManager) > PartitionInfo.)
2. From the "Physical Drive" drop-down list, select the disk for which you want to create the PARTINFO.
3. If there are any numbers in the "Errors" column that are greater than 0, click the affected partition to view descriptions of the problems in the "Disk & Partition Errors" box (located in the top right corner of the PartitionInfo program screen). If there are only INFO messages listed in the box, then no actual errors were detected.
4. To save the PARTINFO as a text file, click "Save As," enter a name for the file, and then click "Save."
These are some of the switches that can be used with Partinfo:
/EPC
This switch causes PARTINFO to check for logical drive entries in Extended partitions that are in non-standard order, and also logical drives that start in a cylinder after the one containing the logical drive table. These formats for logical drive entries, although technically correct, cause the partition to be invisible to the IBM Boot Manager or may cause FDISK programs to fail. These formats are produced by older versions of Linux FDISK and other Linux disk-partitioning programs, such as Disk Druid.
/EPF
This switch functions the same as the /EPC switch, except that it also repairs the entries by changing then into the standard format.
Bottom Line
I think that you will have to remove all the partitions, clean install Windows 2000. Consult this page to install Linux on your hard drive: http://www.powerquest.com/support/primus/id2607.cfm
Don't use Norton's again.
Hope this helps

Thanx,
I have used PartInfo and PartEdit.
On this HD was 4 Partitions. the First 13GB Fat32 Boot, than the two Linux Partitions and than 22GB Fat32. (ungefähre Zahlen, 2-3 GB differenz)
Now I deleted the three last Partitions with PartEdit and PartInfo. Before I've got the #116 Error in Partition Magic 7. Now I've got the #106 error.
I din't know how to configure the first Partition to the right Dates. Or how to calculate the right dates to Edit the right "grösse" of the partition.

I can't delete the first Partition. There are very needful Files!
Boot from your CD. Get into the console. Back up the data that you can.
Grosse = size. I think that this partition is being seen by Partition Magic as a 64KB size instead of Fat32.
In the end I think you will have to clean install W2K, however, there may be someone who will join this thread in a little while that can give you better instructions.

Tja, Das Thema hat sich schon erledigt.
Hab mit PartitionInfo und PartitionEdit von PArtition Magic 7 die PArtition n bischen bearbeitet und konnte unter Dos auf die erste Partition zugreifen. Da hab ich mir die wichtigen Files alle gesichert und hab die Platte neu Partitioniert. (Bleibt nur noch die Dateien Umzubenennen)
Thanx for all help
