Hi all,

Looked up and found SMART(montools).  See here output of smart.

Looks like some sectors are broken?

Is this when I use dd-rescue?

Now gparted does not even recognize it as a ext4 just as unknown. 

I ran boot-repair and now grub only sees my other partition. Running an installation of bodhi linux I thought did not exist.
