sorry,
I have still not been succesful. Regarding reading book ,I have
read some portions of the book "The complete reference:Linux".There are a
few things which can be done such as using commands such as e2fsck and fsck
but I am afraid in the process of repairing the drive, I might just end up
deleting all its data. So I wud like to come to somebody's room with the
external drive and show me how to set it right. Then i wud probably learn. I
can come 2moro itself.
