Ok, I'm using gpart.
I have 2 routers. A wireless netgear and a really old 8 out ethernet router (still works fine). I'll probably just connect both computers to the 8 router and see what happens.
I'll let you know what happens with the gpart as I go along.
Thank you again.

Currently the following filesystem types are known to gpart (listed by module names) :
<u>beos</u> BeOS filesystem type.
<u>bsddl</u> FreeBSD/NetBSD/286BSD disklabel sub-partitioning scheme used on Intel platforms.
<u>ext2</u> Linux second extended filesystem.
<u>fat</u> MS-DOS FAT12/16/32 "filesystems"
<u>hpfs</u> IBM OS/2 High Performance filesystem.
<u>hmlvm</u> Linux LVM physical volumes (LVM by Heinz Mauelshagen).
<u>lswap</u> Linux swap partitions (versions 0 and 1).
<u>minix</u> The Minix operating system filesystem type.
<u>ntfs</u> MS Windows NT/2000 filesystem.
<u>qnx4</u> QNX 4.x filesystem.
<u>rfs</u> The Reiser filesystem (version 3.5.X, X > 11).
<u>s86d1</u> Sun Solaris on Intel platforms uses a sub-partitioning scheme on PC hard disks similar to the BSD disklabels.
<u>xfs</u> Silicon Graphic's journalling filesystem for Linux.
That's what was listed
Is there a manual you can link me to that explains how to use gpart, as opposed to using the onboard help included in the program itself.
I ran TestDisk since I'm waiting for a hint of how I'm supposed to go about recovering my files and this is what came up:
Disk /dev/hda - 730 MB / 696 MiB
that is the only media listed...

If the partition itself is corrupted, I know of no Linux tool that will help you. The best tool that I have found for trying to recover files from a corrupted Windows partition is
Recuva, a free program that runs under Windows. To try to recover files this way you would need to install the corrupted disk into another Windows computer as a second (or third or fourth) drive. And, of course, there is a chance that the data is so badly damaged that you will not be able to get it back.
So, if I reformatted the computer, would there be a pretty good chance that I would be able to recover the lost content?

If you reformat before recovering files the chance of recovering anything goesdown sharply.
For more information on gpart than is built into the command, type man gpart at a shell prompt. I expect that you could also find a lot of information on gpart with a few simple searches (Google is your friend).

Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.

Is there a tutorial directed at what I'm attempting to do? It seems there should be, seeing as it would be a huge asset...
a step by step to copy my desktop folder...
