Thank you Michael for your reply. Where the situtation is: I went to town and bought a new WD120 2" drive and have a successful install from the Gutsy CD that I made from the .iso download. As for access to the hd, yes it's sitting on my brief case! This HP dv8000 laptop (amd64) has space for two hd's. I had two inside, they are both out now, only the new 120G is in. Tomorrow I'll put back in the drive that was the primary and see what I can see using the new Gutsy install. I must tell you that I'm ignorant of the command line. So I'll be looking for GUI apps that will let me poke at the bricked drive(s).
Thank you again for your response and if you know of a GUI way to look at the drives I'd appreciate learning about it.
