I recently was taking pictures with a digital camera. During one of these picture-takings, the camera said "cf error" (compact flash). So
I take this compact flash and attach it via ide-cf adapter to my linux box as /dev/hdc. I run fdisk /dev/hdc, which tells me there is 1 fat-16 partition, which is correct. However, I cannot mount it (bad superblock or whatever error message that pops up when that happens). I was able to read the image using "dd if=/dev/hdc of=cfimage bs=1024". Does anyone know of a tool to reconstruct at least some of the lost data? I figure I could break it into 1k blocks and look for some that start with a jpeg header or something but that seems painful.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!
