Thanks for your responses....
Now I'd like to up the ante.... Now 2 partitions on two different drives 
won't mount. I have two harddrives with several partitions on each. Before I 
read your responses I ran disk utility and was able to "repair permissions" 
and "repair disk" all but one partition on the two drives, the one with OS 
10.2.6 on it. I booted up on my 10.3 disk (I use 10.2 because some of my 
often used software won't run on 10.3) and ran Disk Warrior. That is when a 
non boot partition on the other drive disappeared, the error code is at my 
office but it was something like  (-97705), I can post the actual code and 
error response when I get to office tmo.

Thanks for your help, I need it.
