Hi again:
I was able to find get my /home partition but in the process windows won't
boot, everything locks up, even with a win boot disk and win98 cdrom. The
mandrake 8.1 cd boots fine. I spent the couple of hours and reinstalled
mandrake on my lost / partition and everything works fine, except windows-it
won't boot out of lilo or bootdisk. I can see the partition fine in linux.
Here is fdisk output:
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2432 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 51 942 7164990 c Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda3 945 2432 11952360 5 Extended

/dev/hda7 1719 2432 5735173+ 83 Linux /home (saved)
My first 50 sectors was my hybernation partition which I don't care about.
Anyway, the important stuff is working, and I have my data. Thanks. Jon
