Cannot boot Ubuntu partition on external hard drive
Hello. I have been a Ubuntu user for about a two years now and while I do know the basics about it, I am not willing to do anything on my own without some advice from more experienced people.
So here is my problem. I used to run dual boot on my old computer with Windows Vista and Ubuntu. However my old computer's hardware broke down due to age. I decided that since my hard drive had not been damaged to put it in an enclosure and use it with my new laptop. When I originally put it on I vaguely remember being able to access data from both the windows and ubuntu partitions fairly easily. I left the hard drive on the side at that point feeling that I could get data from it whenever I needed to. Now ,about two months later, however, when I plug it in I can only access data from the Windows partition. When I open GParted and see the partitions on my external hard drive I see the Windows NTSF partition and an extended partition where my Ubuntu Partition used to be but know I see an unknown file system of the same size(My linux-swap partition is still there on the extended partition though there is also an Unallocated area on my extended partition that I am not sure I recall being there. I am hoping someone can help me access my ubuntu partition to get the data from it. I don't need to be able to boot from it or anything, I just want to be able to recover my old data. That being said I have tried to boot from it to see if I could recover data that way and I recieved: error: unknown filesystem grub rescue > So I am not sure what to do at this point. Thanks. |
Aren't you on a linux system now? The usb drive will be under /media in your filemanager
|
I am but my computer does not recognize the linux partition on my hard drive. I know where it should be but it is not there. That's why the file system shows up as unknown on gparted instead of something else like ext4.

Do you have usb-utils installed?
Also what is dmesg saying? |
I do have usb utils installed.
The result for dmesg is: r 4 [ 1.305163] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.1: irq 21, io base 0x0000e0c0 [ 1.305409] hub 4-0:1.0: USB hub found [ 1.305417] hub 4-0:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 1.305548] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.2: PCI INT C -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 [ 1.305560] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.2: setting latency timer to 64 [ 1.305565] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.2: UHCI Host Controller [ 1.305646] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.2: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 5 [ 1.305679] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.2: irq 19, io base 0x0000e0a0 [ 1.305911] hub 5-0:1.0: USB hub found [ 1.305919] hub 5-0:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 1.306048] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 23 (level, low) -> IRQ 23 [ 1.306060] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 1.306066] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: UHCI Host Controller [ 1.306156] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 6 [ 1.306188] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: irq 23, io base 0x0000e080 [ 1.306427] hub 6-0:1.0: USB hub found [ 1.306435] hub 6-0:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 1.306564] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.1: PCI INT B -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 [ 1.306576] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.1: setting latency timer to 64 [ 1.306581] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.1: UHCI Host Controller [ 1.306665] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.1: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 7 [ 1.306698] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.1: irq 19, io base 0x0000e060 [ 1.306930] hub 7-0:1.0: USB hub found [ 1.306942] hub 7-0:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 1.307070] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: PCI INT C -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18 [ 1.307082] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: setting latency timer to 64 [ 1.307088] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: UHCI Host Controller [ 1.307170] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 8 [ 1.307220] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: irq 18, io base 0x0000e040 [ 1.307454] hub 8-0:1.0: USB hub found [ 1.307462] hub 8-0:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 1.307699] usbcore: registered new interface driver libusual [ 1.307787] i8042: PNP: PS/2 Controller [PNP0303:PS2K,PNP0f13:PS2M] at 0x60,0x64 irq 1,12 [ 1.313042] serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 [ 1.313052] serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 [ 1.313293] mousedev: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice [ 1.313572] rtc_cmos 00:06: RTC can wake from S4 [ 1.313745] rtc_cmos 00:06: rtc core: registered rtc_cmos as rtc0 [ 1.313780] rtc0: alarms up to one year, y3k, 242 bytes nvram, hpet irqs [ 1.313884] device-mapper: uevent: version 1.0.3 [ 1.314026] device-mapper: ioctl: 4.22.0-ioctl (2011-10-19) initialised: dm-devel@redhat.com [ 1.314091] EISA: Probing bus 0 at eisa.0 [ 1.314096] EISA: Cannot allocate resource for mainboard [ 1.314100] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 1 [ 1.314104] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 2 [ 1.314107] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 3 [ 1.314111] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 4 [ 1.314115] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 5 [ 1.314118] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 6 [ 1.314122] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 7 [ 1.314125] Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 8 [ 1.314129] EISA: Detected 0 cards.

Here is the result from fdisk and gparted if that helps. The partition labeled Ubuntu is not actually a Linux partition, only sdb6 actually is.http://imgur.com/Baw2h

Try lsusb

Since you have gparted maybe you can run fsck on sdb6
|
raj@raj-VGN-FW235J:~$ sudo fsck /dev/sdb6
fsck from util-linux 2.20.1 e2fsck 1.42 (29-Nov-2011) fsck.ext2: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks... Superblock has an invalid journal (inode 8). Clear<y>? |

So I typed in yes and fixed a bunch of errors. Now I have:
raj@raj-VGN-FW235J:~$ sudo fsck /dev/sdb6 fsck from util-linux 2.20.1 e2fsck 1.42 (29-Nov-2011) fsck.ext2: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks... fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb6 The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device> |
Well that's your answer you need to run

So this appeared to be a dead end since when I tried that I got:
raj@raj-VGN-FW235J:~$ sudo e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sdb6 e2fsck 1.42 (29-Nov-2011) e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb6 The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem.
