Subject: Missing partition on HD (part 2)

I recently posted about my hard drive woes, especially the magic
vanishing partition which (holds? held?) about 60 pages of the
English translation of a new Calamus manual.

The partition still exists, and its statistics (size, etc.) are
correct. However, GEMDOS/BIOS will not read it, because its type
has been mutated to EEM instead of GEM!

How can I change the partition sector without wiping the whole
partition? If I can get it back to GEM, I might be able to recover
some files before I redo the partition. All help appreciated.
Thanks.
