ELETE THIS LINE (but DO NOT delete the blank line after the headers above) <excuse me if this doesn't look very good, but I don't really know how to use this editor> I have a MacCrate 80 meg hard disk, which is actually a Seagate 296N. I seem to manage to crash the partition table on the drive once in awhile. I know its not a hardware problem, but due to some of the software I play around with, russian roulette at it's finest! After the table crashes, the drive won't mount, at all. Not even reinstalling the drivers will correct the problem. I have the drive divided up into 2 partitions, if I delete the first partition and reboot, the 2nd partition will mount undamaged. Before I delete the first partition, I can go in to it with SUM and recover everything thats there, but it is a pain. So what I need is a utility that will rebuild my partition table without having to reformat the drive. Is this possible? If so, anyone have a utility that does this? Thanks!
