Well, how many partitions did you have on your machine before wiping the partition table on the disk?

And which kind?

Hello,

Why don't you use the Testdisk tool to recover lost partitions?

I have scripts that regularly do an fdisk –l and put it into a subversion repository (on another server, and I have it checked out on my desktop).

Why? Because this gives me all the information I need to make the partitions again should I need it.

I also save mdadm, lvm, smart, … and a lot other information about my disks.


Occasionally there are changes, and then I get an alert about it, usually because I resized a logical volume group, but it has also been because a disk stopped responding.


No I wont send you the scripts, because you’ll learn more by doing and implementing them yourself.

This is a bug tracker, and you appear to be asking a question so I am
closing this bug report.  In addition your question is entirely too
vague to be answerable: you have not indicated what it is you want to
accomplish.  It could be recover the partitions you lost when you
inadvertently ran mklabel ( which you can use the rescue command for ),
or it could be that you now want to create some new partitions and are
unsure how.  When asking for help you need to be specific.
