Howto recover lost and formatted data on lost partitions.
Howto recover lost and formatted data on lost partitions.
You have only to remember +/- of how your HD was partitioned. In my case it looked like this HD with 80G HDA1 Windows 5G VFAT Windows c: HDA2 Windows 35G Windows d: HDA5 Extended 40G HDA6 SWP 256M HDA7 / ReiserFS 5G HDA8 /company 10G HDA9 /songs the rest of HD So I knew that my company's data was on a partition between 45G and 55G of the HD. Then I made this: New installation of LINUX Don't be afraid to format the partitions because Foremost ignores POINTERS HDA1 Windows 5G HDA5 Extended 75G HDA6 SWP 256M HDA7 / ReiserFS 5G HDA8 /company ReiserFS 55G HDA9 /recovery ReiserFS 15G So all my old data should be in de "new" "/company" partition. Log in as ROOT and install the program to (in this case HDA9 /recovery) Please check the man page (man foremost) for details and your needs!!! I executed this form the "recovery"-partition: ./foremost -v -s 50000000 -T -t jpg doc pdf -i /dev/hda8 The program started with search after block 50.000.000 created a folder with timestamp in /recovery and recovered JPGs PDFs and DOCs Good Luck!!! By the way, this works with all kind of memory (Flashcards, HD, Penstick...) Just mount and foremost! Now everyone can start open a RECOVER-COMPANY. Sören |
