Hello – help appreciated
I inadvertently clicked a “Restore disk image” pop-up window and now one of my hard disks seems to have disappeared. I was installing a Raspberry Pi Naturewatch camera installation program and the D: drive (sdc) seems to have been replaced by ‘boot’ and ‘rootfs’ (both related to Naturewatch) in Other Locations>On This Computer.
I’m dual booting Ubuntu with Windows7 and the drive is visible from Windows, which showed an empty disk which allowed me to copy a file to it. The relevant items of an lshw listing seem to be:
Code:
/0/3/0.0.0 /dev/sdc disk 1TB WDC WD10EARX-00N [this is not visible]
/0/3/0.0.0/1 /dev/sdc1 volume 43MiB Windows FAT volume
/0/3/0.0.0/2 /dev/sdc2 volume 4241MiB EXT4 volume
/0/5/0.0.0 /dev/sdd disk 1TB WDC WD10EZRX-00A
/0/5/0.0.0/1 /dev/sdd1 volume 931GiB Extended partition
/0/5/0.0.0/1/5 /dev/sdd5 volume 931GiB Windows NTFS volume [this is the one that is visible]
... and ...

Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary.
Is the drive just unmounted? And how can I get it back – anyone know?
Thanks
