Here's what I did.
- Booted to DOS via Win9x BootMenu.
- had three partitions: C~1.6G, D~2.0G, E~500M (dive~4.5G).
- changed to D, made directory, copied all data on E there.
- FORMAT E: /u
- Went along as usual and said it formatted ~500M.
- did DIR of E, data still there.
- did DIR of C, drive empty and approx 500M in size.
Had to pull out pretty fancy bag of tricks to come back from this one. Anyone have any idea how this happened so I can avoid in future?
