Yes. I tried something (speaking from memory) like
mount -t ext3 /dev/hda13 /mnt/sysimage
and it seemed that the complete system was there, but it was not; in 
particular, the /etc/fstab file appeared to be empty.

My conclusion was that the disk was damaged beyond repair, and I saw no 
issue but reinstall YDL from scratch, which I have now done.

Thanks for your interest.
