So, for the record, finally using the hints from the above link I managed to recover most of the data. The successful commands were: # losetup -o32356 /dev/loop0 /mnt/disk_500/sdb.img # mount -text2 /dev/loop /mnt/sdb_img -o sb=131072,ro Thanks to all for the precious help. raffaele -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
