OK, those look fine. I don't know why the sudo mount -t ext4
caused what appears to be a remounting of /. I was concerned
that another partition had been mounted on top of /, hence
my "That's bad!" comment.

Note that there are 2 swaps, but I assume one is from your
12.04 configuration.

/dev/sda3 is clearly mounted on /media/storage, so if you
can't see any files under it, then the information on the
previous thread isn't valid anymore. So, you get the opportunity
to figure out where it's really living. Or, it's just plain
empty.

Try looking without the GUI, just ls -lAR /media/storage.

And looking at the old thread, Mark had you do a df -H which
showed /dev/sda3 mounted /media/storage.

The only other non-swap partition is /dev/sdb1, which appears
to have been your 12.04 /. But you can mount it on
any empty directory e.g:

     sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
     ls -l /mnt # to see what's there
     cat /mnt/etc/fstab # to see your old configuration
     sudo unmount /mnt
