I am working on trying to recover some data from a hard drive (FAT32 formatted). The drive can be mounted OK (mounted in a USB external drive housing), but the data is not accessible. When I do an ls -al, I get this back: ============================== /media/usbdrive> ls -al total 32 drwxrwxrwx 5 root root 16384 2008-06-21 17:28 ./ drwxrwxrwx 5 root root 16384 1970-01-01 01:00 ../ ?--------- ? ? ? ? ? Backup ?--------- ? ? ? ? ? Vids_1992 ?--------- ? ? ? ? ? Photos_1992 ============================== So... something is seriously wrong... obviously... but the question is... is there any hope? Does anyone know any method, or tools (Linux, Windows, whatever) that can be used to recover at least some of the data?
