Re: did I just lost a partition!
Re: did I just lost a partition! OK, so bad news, unfortunately.The input/output error most likely means your hdd is dieing, in more ways than one, perhaps the reading/writing heads of the disk are damaged where that partition is supposed to be located, perhaps a high voltage from the comp burned it or something, though it's kinda unlikely. If it can be proved it's so, I recommend you either check the usb ports of your comp, or the cable is damaged or something.Next, the no magic number/invalid argument most likely means the drive should be read in little-endian format, while the thing that specifies that is somehow reverted or altered so that it's read in big endian. Again, kind of unlikely for any drive to exubit such behaviour, but we are in unusual/uncharted teritory already. As a last resort, I recommend you plugg it in a windows virtual machine, whatever machine you could find. If you really want, I'm sure you could find a win xp machine with nvda pre-installed and use that, though, I am not optimistic about the drive. I would recommend also you copy all the other data off of it before the entire thing collapses, so you don't face any surprices...believe me, I went through enough of those to know how it feels to have entire gb of data erased. Then, just buy another ssd or something, or rely on cloud backup, if you feel your data can be accomodated by the budget you can afford to spend on something like google one or dropbox++ or whatever. Even keybase can be good enough, even though I don't really trust it that much, but it can't be worse than other smallish companies like dropbox.

Re: did I just lost a partition!
Re: did I just lost a partition! well, I have a windows/linux combo, and fsck was able to read the windows partition and fix it, making windows able to boot from it again. In some distros, fsck doesn't come with ntfs capabilities, but then there is the ntfs fix program.

Re: did I just lost a partition!
Re: did I just lost a partition! or you could run the linux counterpart, fsck. Check the disk isn't mounted first, then you can runsudo fsck -y /dev/sdb4I have to prefix it with sudo since it's a very dangerous command to run, so it will refuse to run as root for me. Perhaps if you check a filesystem on a partition that's not mounted, like the one on the external drive, it will let you run as normal user, DK.Then, I used the -y flag because there might be a slue of errors on the partition, so it won't ask you for confirmation to fix all of them.Once you run it, can you post the output of the command, at least the non-repetitive lines, if you can't post it all here?

Re: did I just lost a partition!
Re: did I just lost a partition! Okay, so the fourth partition does still exist. (Though the order of them is odd -- boot usually comes first, not last, and I've never seen the lba flag before -- I have no idea what that actually does, if anything.) Try this:mount /dev/sdb4 where is a test directory to mount the partition in.
