hi folks,
my eldest daughter has an old laptop with windowsxp loaded on it. the
machine crashed yesterday.
my question: can i use debian and the ddrescue-procedure to save the
data of this laptop like i did about 7 years ago with a crashed
slackware_hd??
google confused me.
thank you,
steef
google for XP rescue and see what you get. There are a whole bunch
of rescue disks available. I have about 4, but have never had to use
one. I think they're all based on Linux, but i don't know how they work.
Good luck

hi doug (and other kind people),
i succeeded with knoppix 7.02. after this, just for fun, i followed the
allmost - antique procedure - with ddrescue. both methods worked well.
thank you all for your help,
regards,
steef
