  When my drive was hosed, the only thing that would
read the messed up partitions was the partition tool
that comes with the installation CD of Mandrake (7.1
at the time).

  Neither dos fdisk nor linux fdisk could see the 
drive, but the Mandrake tool could.  It's one of the 
few reasons I bother to keep the Mandrake CD around.
