Thread: Partitions with stuff on that I cannot see or access


after great success solving 2 year old problem here thought i'd try other big problem have....

after problem updating 8.04 10.04 re-formatted , partitioned 1 of 2 hard drives. second drive remain unchanged.

have managed give myself permission read, write , execute in partitions on second drive (sdb1, sdb2 , sdb3) yet files put there before upgrade cannot 'seen'. when open each partition can see 'lost , found' folder empty. partition appears empty when exploring /media yet when right-click , @ 'properties' says 5.6gb of 90gb used!

how can access these files on partition?

many (in anticipation!)

nevil

from other post /media/documents should 1 of mount points on second drive. output of following command:
code:
ls -al /media/documents
if there's whole mess of files top 10 or do. need first 2 lines - lines ending in "." , ".."
