partition table seems to be corrupted .. (physical != logical ) LVM


Hello,

For 2 days, I have a very big problem.

One of my drive got corrupted ( fdisk tells me that the physical partition is not the same size than the logical one ).

The physical is near 30mb! and the logical near 1tb.

I don't know what I can do to solve this.

sfdisk does not tell me any error.

This drive is part of a 3 drive LVM.

The lvm is mounted as /home so my OS is intact.

I cannot use this drive anymore. I would like to know if somebody could give me some informations about this issue. I don't want to lose 700gb of data! I have svn repositories and a lot of work. I know, I have some backup, but I have to recover the latest data.

at the same time this corruption occured, grub stopped to work.

Thank you!

Glad your problem is solved, could you perhaps share the solution?

Kind regards
