We had a Novell suse linux open enterprise server running happily some months, but an attempt to use a new Acronis image package to create a server image failed, leaving us with a server that will not properly boot.
It seems that during the boot process, whenever it tries to write anything, a message is generated saying 'no more space on drive'. This is not correct, of course, and after starting the server recovery process and using the expert partitioning tool, it seems that all the partition information is correct except that the columns 'mount point' and 'mount by' are empty - apart from the linux swap partition.
The expert partitioner does not seem to allow these two values (mount point, mount by) to be edited.
Is there any way to recover this server where all the system and data is almost certainly intact, but inaccessible because of a simple partition table corruption?
