No, just erase the bad volume, not the entire disk. That should re-
initialize the file system in that partition.

I don't have a current copy of DW . . .the last copy i have is 3 or
so years old . . .but Disk Utility, Drive Genius and TechTool Pro 5
are all happy.
The only thing that appears amiss is that it doesn't show up in
Finder windows until I use the Go to Folder option and then it shows
up as grayed out instead of normally.

Did you try erasing the touchy partition with Disk Utility?
Did you try siccing Disk Warrior on it to see what handy diagnostic
messages it might provide?
