OK, I use ddrescue and saved to a backup USB drive which is big enough.
Now, I use a healthy system and fdisk my_file2.img
fdisk -l my_file2.img
Disk my_file2.img: 58.7 GB, 58730741760 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7140 cylinders, total 114708480 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Disk my_file2.img doesn't contain a valid partition table
==========================
now , how do I mount the rescued image? It prompts for file type.
I did use -t auto but it didn't help.
I did file my_file2.img
my_file2.img: data
