Topic: Lost filesystem after shrinking NTFS partition
I have Fedora 3.14.27-100.fc19.x86_64 and GParted 0.18.0. I used GParted to shrink an NTFS partition a few gigabytes on a 40 GB WD hard drive. Then I booted in to Windows 7 and found the filesystem or partition is gone. Windows wanted me to format the HDD. I declined. I started CHKDSK for a few seconds then realized that's probably a bad plan and pressed Ctrl+C to stop it. What did GParted do? I need the files on the drive. Is there a way to fix the problem? When I try to access the filesystem on the drive in Fedora I get the following error message:
Error mounting /dev/sdc1 at /run/media/User1/DC3C0C393C0C10E6: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sdc1" "/run/media/User1/DC3C0C393C0C10E6"' exited with non-zero exit status 18: Failed to open ntfs attribute: No such file or directory
