Better info here (in this case trying to recover an ext partition which was formatted as VFAT): http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/recover-formatted-ext3-partition-631592/
Definitely backup the whole disk as an image, but after that it looks like if you delete the partition then let TestDisk have a run at it then there's a good chance it'll find the NTFS data there. Keep notes - this might be a good one to repeat at a PLUG meet if you're successful. -- Mark Rogers // More Solutions Ltd (Peterborough Office) // 0844 251 1450 Registered in England (0456 0902) @ 13 Clarke Rd, Milton Keynes, MK1 1LG _______________________________________________ Peterboro mailing list Peterboro@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/peterboro
