Burned over a session on a CDR
Hello, I have a friend who had some important files "erased" on a multisession cd. It seems that sometimes when you do a multisession CD it erases the stuff before it. How do I get these back, I'm wondering if anyone knows a linux app to retrieve them (or even a windows app).
By the way this is NOT a cdrw, so it really shouldlnt be possible that the files were erased... (right?). What I think happens is that if you don't click "Keep old session" then it no longer points to it, but it should be there... Anyways, if anyone has any tips, Id apppreciate it! Hanez |
Under linux, you could try:
Code:
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=somefile |
Hi,
see man mount, options for iso9660, which says: session=x Select number of session on multisession CD. (Since 2.3.4.) eg. to read 2nd session on a multisession cd, I use a command like: # mount -o session=1 /dev/cdrom /cdrom Cya. |
Worked!
