<br>
I was looking at partitions with Nautilus and gparted
<br>
and deleting old partitions of swap disks etc
<br>
but I deleted something wrong
<br>
and it wouldnt boot
<br>
so i reinstalled UbuntuStudio.
<br>
<br>
Is there any way of seeing the dates of partitions,
<br>
or figuring some other way what's what?

Before installing systems onto a PC, I draw out a map of the hard
disks, and decide what partitions to set up and what will go where.
<br>
<br>
For example, I might decide to put Ubuntu Studio in sda1, Mint in
sda5, home in sda6, swap in another partition, etc. It also helps to
make each partition a different size.<br>
<br>
Once something is installed, I use gparted to label each partition
so I know what's what.<br>
<br>
If you install something without remembering what is what, then
mount everything, examine the contents, and then label each
partition in gparted.<br>
