What happened most likely is that somehow one of those utilities of yours ended up marking the partition itself invisible. It can be desirable in some cases, for example pc manufacturers typically make the recovery partition invisible to keep customers from messing with it unintentionally. But it can definitely be a nuisance when a partition is set invisible undesirably, the only way I know of removing that setting is by using the not do friendly Terminal utility fdisk. Good luck! -- Best Regards, John Musbach _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
