    Hi Folks,

    I erased the partition table of a running machine. Shame on me. Machine is
    still running though. There _must_ be a way to get theinformation from the
    running kernel. As fdisk states: "The kernel still uses the old table"
    I tried /proc/partitions, but can't seem to get the cylinders right.
     At the moment I am copying 120GB data over ethernet, which is kind of
    tedious.
    Anyone ever recover from this ?

    Regards
    Dan
