You were correct, I missed that, thanks Brian. But I am still unable to
mount this drive as ext3, even from the cli:

[root@otrta root]# mount -t ext3 /dev/hdg1 /mnt/hdg
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdg1,
        or too many mounted file systems
[root@otrta root]#

The reason the drive failed was because there was 2GB of free space when
I wrote my 6GB file to the disk. Things went bad after that, I was able
to get the data from the drive but have been unable to mount it using
ext3. I will just try another FS and see what happens.

Thanks,

Jon
