This is a new drive that was running great in a single drive box which
was transported as hdb into a second stable machine with new cabling,
motherboard, and power which was running 1 drive. Fsck ran unmounted
as a secondary on hdb1 & hdb3 with no errors, just when we do fsck /dev/hdb4
we receive this mesg:
"fsck.ext2: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read
while trying to open /dev/hdb4
Could this be a zero-length partition?"
Before we re-booted hdb4 was 27GB filled at 3% with 38 groups, hdb1 was
79%, and hdb3 was 9%. Should we attempt to do this as per Niels Poppe?:
# mount -nro /dev/hdb4
then
# fsck -f -y /dev/hdb4
Though currently the partition seems unmountable.  I appreciate any methods,
procedures, or tools to re-vitalize this partition.

Sincerely,
