The following steps may not replicate your needs. Ok we have TestDisk and PhotoRec installed.Ĭhange to the folder of where you want to recover your files to.
I thought I would try alien out for the first time. However there was a rpm on the main website. The version on the repositories is not the current version. I came across TestDisk ().ĭon't ask me which repo it is on. I was not paying the best of attention when I broke it but I believe I accidentally installed grub to /dev/hda instead of /dev/sda! Maybe?Īfter trying ddrescue and failing. I have all my music, videos, thunderbird profile, everything on this one drive! I was unable to mount it or use ntfsfix or even chkdsk from the recovery console off the windows xp install CD. Somewhere along the line I hurt my NTFS data partition. I was making the transition from windows xp to Ubuntu Edgy. I though it was necessary to share my experience. I have been up for 36 hours trying various methods to recover my lost data! Given that i'm not the most confident Linux user and I managed to succeed.
