On an occasion or two, I've had linux installs overwrite a partition |
| 34 |
table when I wasn't paying close occasion. Using google I found |
| 35 |
TestDisk which is a program that is able to recover partition tables. |
| 36 |
I've used it successfully 2 or 3 times. I've also encountered one |
| 37 |
situation where I broke the partition table with dd and TestDisk wasn't |
| 38 |
able to help. So, mileage varies :-> |
