Following the instructions or suggestions in this article may void your FSG Warranty.

'This is how you do it easiest:'

Total wipe new install of FSG-3 (No special firmware needed): Tools needed to make ReiserFS partitions with for example: Paragon Partition Manager - http://www.paragon-software.com/demo.htm or similar program.

1 - Connect harddrive to your computer

2 - Make one partition ReiserFS primary (Active) <size=133Mb+)

3 - Make one partition ReiserFS primary <size=133Mb+>"Not needed I noticed, but better have it as it is in default configuration"

4 - Make one partition LinuxSwap2 <size=70Mb+>

5 - Make one partition ReiserFS "This is your home partition) <size=whatever>

6 - Apply changes to drive (Partition Magic/Others)

7 - Connect the drive back to your FSG-3

8 - Start your latest Freecom Storage Gateway Assistant and start Rescue procedure.

Now the FSG-tool formats all partitions and adds the content to them.

It worked great for me, but might not for you, I take no responsibility for any damage that may occur, remember don't do this if you have warranty.... You do this at your own risk, this is intended for those who had damaged their harddrive and have no other way to correct the problem

Hope this helps some of you

It's important that you use the filesystem ReiserFS and not Ext2 or 3 when creating the partitions or it might not recognise the home partition correctly
