HDD Help!

[Philip Ayres]

I have an HDD I've pulled from my Freeview box.

Windows won't recognise it.

I downloaded www.fs-driver.org/index.html which recognised it as possessing a Linux format on the share I wanted to see (NOT Ext2/Ext3 - the software recognises that and is happy to read the other partition in that format)

Someone recomended I try Ubuntu, which I downloaded and installed on a datastick. That didn't even recognise the filetype.

Any ideas?

What make of freeview box is it?

I have a digifusion and the digital spy forums were a wealth of information. They may be able to help you with yours too.

Ubuntu gives this error when it tries to mount it:

[ 173.652448] EXT2-fs (sda2): error: blocksize is too small
