How to recover partitions deleted by mistake?

Tassadar · 06-10-2014, 09:34 AM

Hi all,

I have delete a whole disk that contained a linux installation using "clean" command on Windows using diskpart. After doing that I realized I had delete the wrong disk.

How could I recover it? I have write nothing nor create any partition on the disk after doing this.

The disk is a SSD.

Many thanks in advance

I want to thank the help.

I finally recovered the disk, the procedure were:

-Use testdisk to recover main partition (the other one and boot was unrecoverable, or at least I couldn`t)
-Installing fresh kubuntu 14.2 onto a new SSD
-Resize recovered partition to exactly match in size with new one on the new installation (using gparted)
-Clone partition to partition with clonezilla
-Restore grub using "boot repair disk"
-Boot on recovered disk
-Modify grub to avoid 10 secons wait screen on every boot.

Regards
