The first harddisk found has no recognizable partition table. /dev/hda is master on first IDE channel, usually default boot. This is the case if the disk is new or the table is overwritten. Rescue is difficult/expensive if it was supposed to contain data. Else use disk partitioning software for your system, and make a new table. Dos or Linux FDISK does it, but (sorry) RTM first. Windows has special tools in Administrative tools- Computer Management-Disk Manager
