Comment 1 for bug 162882

bizarrely I can read data from it and it mounts from an image... but still unable to mount actual drive:

root@SteveC:/tmp# dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=myfile bs=1M count=1000
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
1048576000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 41.6886 seconds, 25.2 MB/s

root@SteveC:/tmp# mkdir myloop

root@SteveC:/tmp# mount -t ext3 -o loop myfile myloop

root@SteveC:/tmp# ls myloop/
data lost+found steve
