How can i fix it?
this [fsck.ext4 -cDfty -C 0 /dev/sdb5] does not work :-/


thanks...

It would appear that you have corrupted partitions. Try the procedures given here.

Hi cortman,

#dumpe2fs /dev/sdb1 | grep superblock
it does not work for me.
its output: dumpe2fs: Corrupt extent header while reading journal superblock


But, after few search, i found these two commands and my partition info recovered after trying them.

#fsck.ext4 -v /dev/sdb1
#e2fsck -b 32768 /dev/sdb5

Thanks dude.

Glad I was able to at least point you in the right direction. :)
Glad it's solved!
