I've installed a fresh disk in slot A of my Qube3 Pro Ed and done a Std
Qube3 OS restore. It appears to be working fine except that I don't think
the partitions add up to 10G.

Anyway, if I install the "dead" disk in slot B how do I mount the partitions
so I can either recover data or fix the problem?

I think its likely that I was unlucky and the disk crashed, or the update
didn't go well and I have a corrupt kernel.

I guess if I can mount the disk then I can assume it didn't crash.

What does that update actually install? Could I simply copy good versions
from the disk I just restored?

Cheers, Malcolm
