An external hard disk of mine became corrupted, and in an effort to save the data on it I dd'd it to another hard disk. Both disks were formatted in Yast (openSUSE 13.1) with a single ext4 partition. But after using dd, now the filesystem is gone from the second disk,
what did you use as "dd"? if it's dd ... of=/dev/sdXX, and the two disks are of similar size, your new disk is gone forever... if it is dd ... of=/mount_point/name_of_a_file then your new disk should be ok. if the new disk is much bigger than the old, you may have some data saved, try the utilities other proposed jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
