I'd try dd or dd_rescue to get an image to work on later. I think dd_rescue at least has options to give up trying to read a block after a certain amount of time and fill in the gaps with zeros. Though, if you've struck out with the utilities you mentioned, I'd lay your chances at slim for recovering anything. -- arno s hautala /-\ [email protected] pgp eabb6fe6 d47c500f b2458f5d a7cc7abb f81c4e00 _______________________________________________ OSX-Nutters mailing list | [email protected] http://lists.tit-wank.com/mailman/listinfo/osx-nutters List hosted at http://cat5.org/
