I'm looking at the 4th IM004776.jpg of the fatdog desktop and I think I
see an icon for sda1. If so, that is a positive sign that fatdog sees
something (like your hdd). I would've like to have seen sda1 & sda2 (2
parts, 1 for recovery), but there are various ways of hiding a restore
partition.

I'm not sure because when I zoom the .jpg to read the icon's letters the
pixels start coming apart.
