The easiest way would be to recreate the partition, and copy files back from the backup - providing you can at least mount it ro.
parted after 14 hours has accomplished nothing apparent, ie: backup attempt failed. There is no mounting of the defective partition or the attempted copy and fsck.ext3 or e2fsck bomb as before.
It might be a size mismatch, and confusing error messages, triggered perhaps when you reached the end of the partition on a write operation.
since the copy failed, I do not see this. thanks again, -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org
