During this post I will be making referencs to M$ Windows... if this is
likely to offend you stop reading here ;)
I have a problem. I was transferring files from a WinXP computer to a
hard drive that is installed on a Windows 2000 machine. When I came
back several hours later to monitor progress the operation had been
interupted. On the XP machine there was a message saying that the
destination no longer existed and lo and behold it wasn't lying.
The Windows 2000 machine says that the drive is there, but it isn't
formatted. Now there's a lot of important stuff on that drive that
needs to be salvaged. I've tried rolling back the registry etc... blah.
So now I want a real solution.
I've tried quickly putting in a Mepis live disk to see if I could mount
the disk but it doesn't know what filesystem type it is. I think it
might be FAT32 but it could be NTFS.
Any suggestions? I really want to recover this data, it would be great
if linux could be my hero :)
