Mount Error

When we try to mount a backup drive get the following error

==========

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc3

=========

This error indicates that partition got corrupted ,this can be overcome by formatting the partition by using the following command

=========

mkfs [ -V ] [ -t fstype ] [ fs-options ] filesys [ blocks ]

eg: mkfs -t ext3 partitionname

==========
=========
