OT: Partition table lost

[Arkadiy Chapkis - Arc]

  Below is partial output of dmesg related to scsi. The array did not have BSD labels, but the Maxtor did. Right now I
only have A1000 connected and here's what fdisk shows:
# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sdb: 198.7 GB, 198790316032 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 24168 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
