Magic partition failed while redimisioning the winXP partition, now
winXP won't boot (actually it boots, but some time after it restarts
the pc, even in 'safe mode'), linux won't mount its partition. is
there any tool under linux that will help?
I can't offer a tool other than to suggest a re-install over the top of
XP. However a tip before re-sizing is to make sure that you do a
defrag first. XP likes to leave stuff in the middle of the drive so
you can't go smaller than that. Re-installing GRUB will probably get
you back into Linux. I would check first by trying a "Live CD/DVD" if
you can see your data, now would be a good time to back it up !
