Before doing anything further with it, you should create an image of your |
| 13 |
dying drive and analyze that instead. And create a 2nd image, in case you |
| 14 |
mess up the first one while repairing it, and the drive really died in |
| 15 |
the meantime. |
| 16 |
dd if=/dev/sdf of=/mnt/sdf.img |
| 17 |
unplug drive |
| 18 |
cp /mnt/sdf.img /mnt/sdf.img2 |
| 19 |
OR |
| 20 |
gzip -c /mnt/sdf.img > /mnt/sdf.img.gz |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
You can then try photorec from app-admin/testdisk, but reiserfs is not |
| 23 |
really supported. But this looks promising: |
