missing partitions??

[haze]

I've searched the DUC, and haven't come across anyone who's mentioned a dilemma like this. A few weeks ago I started up my G4 500 (OS9.2.2 PT 5.3.1), and noticed that one of my audio drives (Seagate Barracuda ATA 28gb was now only showing 1 of the 8 partitions that I had created for it?!).

I've tried the Apple disk utility, Norton systemworks , yet nothing seems to bring those partitions back. Should I reseat the drive, or will that wipe out everything?

So, is there anyway to bring these missing partions back from the abyss? Do I need to re-format the drive and start anew? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,

I would give Disk Warrior a try if its available to you.

With the system shut down you can reseat the drives ATA cable without a problem.

If you don't need the material on the other partitions then I would backup what you can and reinitialize the drive with drive setup. If you are still having problems at that point you may want to consider replacing the drive.
