 Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 5:10 pm Post subject: Mounting SFS Filesystem [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Hi all gentooers!
I've been around a problem for 2 days now: Some client provided me with a SCSI disk from which I am supposedly recovering some important configuration files. This disk used to be attached to a machine running Windows Server 
What I did what to attach it to my server (running gentoo  ) , and tried to mount it as a normal NTFS disk. But something happened , although the disk was recognized as : /dev/cciss/c0d1p1
| Code: |
app ~ # cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
104 0 71126640 cciss/c0d0
104 1 1958384 cciss/c0d0p1
104 2 199920 cciss/c0d0p2
104 3 68968320 cciss/c0d0p3
104 16 35561280 cciss/c0d1
104 17 35561264 cciss/c0d1p1
|
I saw the disk and one partition, doing "fdisk /dev/cciss/c0d1" I got the following :
| Code: |
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/cciss/c0d1: 36.4 GB, 36414750720 bytes
255 heads, 32 sectors/track, 8716 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8160 * 512 = 4177920 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/cciss/c0d1p1 1 8716 35561264 42 SFS
|
As you see, it detects the partition as SFS.
What should I do know? is it encrypted?
I hope you guys could help me.
Thanks a lot!!!

Maybe, but the strange things is that it was being used days ago. But anyway, I think your are right...
The person in this post talks about "DiskExplorer by Acronis " , dont you know if we have in linux something like???

[c]fdisk - I'd make a backup of this disk before changing the partition type.

Thanks for anwering. You know, I just used, the "copy" utility from testdisk and it worked smooth to recover the data. Now I am fine. Thanks!!!!
