 |
|
hi, is there a tool or a possibility to recover a destroyed ntfs partition?
i'm not sure what exactly happened but my old windows partition doesn't work anymore. i don't need windows but there is some data i need to recover.
this is the hd with the ntfs partition
| Code: | Disk /dev/hdc: 40.0 GB, 40020664832 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4865 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdc1 * 1 2823 22675716 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hdc2 2824 4865 16402365 c Win95 FAT32 (LBA) |
a normal mount does not work:
| Code: | modprobe ntfs
mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1 /mnt/windows/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc1,
or too many mounted file systems |
i tried the windows tool erd commander but it can't find the partition (hdc1) either 
fixdisktable reports a Segmentation fault:
| Code: | fixdisktable-0.3 /dev/hdc1
cylinders=4865, heads=255, sectors=63
FAT partition at offset 483080704, length=(9.988 MB) 10472960
Sectors: start= 943517, end= 963971, length= 20455
Hd,Sec,Cyl: start(186,30,58) end(1,9,60)
FAT partition at offset 1028645376, length=(31.838 MB) 33384960
Sectors: start= 2009073, end= 2074277, length= 65205
Hd,Sec,Cyl: start(15,4,125) end(30,3,129)

I once totally nuked my ntfs partition, no idead how i did this, but i was able to recover about 80% with the Restorer 2000 Professional (http://www.bitmart.net/buy.shtml). You have to pay for the full version to actually recover anything but you can see what is still in a shape to be recovered with the demo.
I have no idea, wether this program works with wine, if it should not work, maybe you have another win installation to run it from.
good luck |
