Hello Stephen,

Thanks for replying.

Sorry, My question was not complete. I need more something 
like a diagnostic tool. The partition table has been messed 
up with (in particular the FS type)... :-( 
So I need to figure out, not what the partition table, but 
what the FS was when the partition was created and used.

Also, following some crashes and unfortunate recovery 
attempts, three secondary ext2 partitions have merged into 
one bigger one. I know where the first one starts and where 
the last one ends but not where they have merged. As a 
result this (big) partition will not mount either, even 
read only. 

What I really need is more info on some diagnostic and 
recovery tool that may be available...


Thanks for replying 


Yours,

Anguo
