data recovery help?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am using the recent F9 rawhide live CD to try to recover data from a 
non-booting Windows XP laptop. The CD boots to a command line prompt and 
won't run X. I don't much care. I made a new directory, /mnt/c, and 
successfully mounted the NTFS drive, /dev/sda1 there. [BTW, the NTFS-3G 
mounting correctly detected an unclean shutdown on the NTFS drive and 
correctly set out the command to use if I wanted to force the mount. Some 
nice work has been done there, this used to be like tooth-pulling.] 

The data is intact and my immediate job is to get it off the HD and on to a 
working USB hard drive. I have the external drive plugged in and powered up 
and I don't know what device driver to use to attempt to mount it. Anyone 
know? (eg, /dev/usb0??? or what?)

There is no single government agency that views sustainability through a broad 
lens, taking into account the values of the people affected by government 
decisions. Any model of sustainability that is driven solely by an economic 
engine is deficient if it is incapable of taking into account social values.
