Unmount the partition, `debugfs $partition` and then `extract $fileOnDamagedFilesystem $targetFileOnExternalFilesystem`. That should do it - but you should check the man-page since I can't recall if it was exactly that. - Nathan
Well, I tried debugfs, using -b and -s options. Used Rick Stevens' suggestion to use mke2fs -n -b <blocksize> /dev/sdc7 where I used blocksizes of 1024, 2048, and 4096. and for each one of these sizes I saved the output so I could use the -b and -s option to debugfs. Yes, I made sure the the sb block was chosen from the list output by mkfs for the corresponding blocksize. All of the options cause debugfs to say: dev/sdc7: Wrong magic number for Ext2 Image Header while opening filesystem This is distressing :) -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
