I have a 300GB sata drive with 3 partitions.

partition 1: linux (83)
partition 2: swap (82)
partition 3: fat32 (c) ~250GB

Partition 3 is shared between linux and windows. Partition 1 has slackware 2.6.13 installed on it. When i ran chkdsk on partition 3 from windows and it found an error and i cancel the repair since i know the partition was created from linux. Now when i booted up linux from another HDD and fdisk -l show the 300GB only has a fat partition with about 110GB. Chkdsk from windows sure screw up the partition table. Can't access that partition from windows either. Since I didn't do anything to the drive after running chkdsk, I believe all data should still be there. Is there anyway to fix this ?

thanx...

there is a partition doctor fow win32. try that out. i dont know any app that does that in linux.

will that work if the partition was overwritten by windows because linux now show the only partition on that drive is HPFS/NTFS which is not the case.

thx...
