Okay, well it would have helped if at first you were using ReiserFS. Second, you completely ignored the gist of my instructions. It's possible by re-creating the meta data, you corrupted the existing partition. Hopefully another expert can help you here.

Or, (and I say this tongue-in-cheek), you could write to Hans Reiser in jail asking him to help you. I'm sure he has plenty of time.
