Thread: Recovering my UBUNTU JJ after Windows reinstall


hi there,

im pretty new linux (about 2 years of experience) , ive got serious problem.
- using ubuntu 9.04 jaunty jackalope 32bit stable relase

had 2 os in computer. 1. winshit xp , 2. ubuntu
then, have reinstall windows xp windows 2000. know win had rewrited mbr. im gonna recover grub. boot 9.04 livecd , tried recover grub using method ::

reinstall ubuntu live cd, marking same partition "/" without formatting

went right, when got partition manager, shows there isnt partition (got 1 40gb disk , 10gb ntfs win , 30gb ext4 linux), free disk.

ok then. had booted again live cd , tried mount ntfs partition. ok.
then, try mount ex4 partition. nothing.

went terminal , tried mount manually using commands ::

sudo mkdir /mnt/root

sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda2 /mnt/root

, shows error ::
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error

should do???

(sorry bad english, im slovakia so...)

reinstalling grub not require reinstalling ubuntu. perhaps problem occurred when selected not format / on reinstall.

@ point, if have no important data in linux, might best reinstall sampe partition, , time format /.
