I have a problem, I can't download ubuntu with my live cd.
This is easy to do but I live in the corner of Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia (in GA) and it is a fairly long drive (I've done it both ways several times) I'll be glad to help you over the phone.
root@1[hda1]# mount /dev/hda1 hda1
Type:
cat /proc/partitions
You can only mount what shows in that file.
However:
[17196389.468000] EXT3-fs: hda1: couldn't mount because of unsupported
Points to an unrecognizable filesystem.
Try:
fsck -N /dev/...
but:
mount -o ro /dev/hda1 hda1
Sometimes works...
Is there antway to retreive the data w/o spending any money?
Yes, I've done it.  use (THEY ARE DIFFERENT):
ddrescue (http://www.gnu.org/s/ddrescue/ddrescue.html) or
dd_rescue (http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ddrescue/)
One is "better" than the other but I can't remember which one/why.
The freezer trick works every time (or most every time anyway...  :)

PS: As usual, "free advice, you can't sue me!  :)"
YMMV...

I'll drive over to you to get it? Doesn't one of you live on Mingus
Mountain?

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
