    Also how can I get temp. ADmin power from which I can del. files created by WIndows like desktop.ini and few more :(


  • Also meathods and repo. of latest Cf links would do fine :)

    Volume is corrupt. You should run chkdsk.

    I did install NTFS fix by sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs


  • ^^^ yes praka i think thats the case.


  • sudo apt-get install nautilus-gksu ^hope this is in ubuntu.
    I dont understand why u cant delete .ini files!are u mounted ur ntfs partn as readonly?use ntfs-3g!


  • Hey that did not worked : I still cannot del. desktop.ini and others :x

    Also which is the latest repo. of Compiz Fuison... Amarnath seems not to work here :
    Try
    sudo nautilus

    else
    chown


  • Well I just googled and found Linux Data Recovery softwares for Linux filesystems.

    http://www.datarecoverylinux.com/
    http://www.stellarinfo.com/linux-data-recovery.htm
    http://www.diskdoctors.net/linux-data-recovery/software.html

    I think the last one deals with fat32, not sure though.


  • u do have windows xp right?try below commands and boot to windows twice and wait for windows CHKDSK to fix the errors.
    ntfsfix /dev/sda1
    ntfsfix /dev/sda3
    and reboot into windows.then try ubuntu able to mount ur ntfs partitions.


  • @shashwath:did u right click on the folder/file and tried "open as administrator"
    with nautilus or in Desktop.btwn i am on debian.must be there in ubuntu too.


  • so...hopefully now u need to get ur sda1 mounted?
    try sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
    and tell whether it is mounted?


  • Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    /dev/sda7 3826 6757 23551258+ 83 Linux


    I do not have windows but some traces are there in sda1


  • Yes the title is misleading
    Now to answer your question, try this
    http://www.snapfiles.com/get/smartrecovery.html


  • Cannot unmount /dev/sda3 Cannot unmount the volume.
    unmount:/medai/sda3 disagree with fstab


  • trevino's repos:

    deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy
    deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy


  • ^afaik it is near to impossible to recover deleted data as in windows.


  • Open nautilus in root mode:

    gksudo nautilus
    I hope you can proceed after that, all mounted stuff will be under /media .. :)

    Offtopic:
    btwn i am on debian
    Its btw (by the way) and not between :- or are you saying 'btw' n times? :p


  • actually which partn where u want to clean up .ini and other files?no need to check sda3. i think it is mounted and works?
    u haf to see sda1 to be fixed.try mounting with ntfs-3g.
    since /dev/sda1 is not mounted now.do a reboot to windows and come back to ubuntu. :)


  • maybe...search in synaptic manager


  • Main pagal ho jaunga .. It seems I had to format sda1 and sda3 has been formatted the problem.. is due to sda 1:x

    and plz Cf Travino latest link :) to guide :D ot it the same that I/vish posted :?


  • this a grey area where linux needs more development:
    the software for data recovery of deleted data


  • Hey, use your Drive manufacturer's own recovery tools, they'd work! But they're for Windows alone. Check the respective websites.


  • Hey buddy dont u think that the title is misleading?:confused:


  • post the o/p of "mount -l"


  • shashwat@shashwat-desktop:~$ sudo mount -l
    /dev/sda7 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
    proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

  • haan!"sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda1"


  • i really dunno how the root nautilus didn't allow you to delete file. jus right click on it and check the permissions tab in properties as root. change if required.

    regarding compiz, trevino's has the most up to date packages (currently 0.5.5). i guess amarnath's repos haf 0.5.2. dunno why but amarnath's repos never worked for me.


  • Any s/w for Linux to backup/retrieve data from fat32 :?


  • Also how can I get temp. ADmin power from which I can del. files created by WIndows like desktop.ini and few more and like folder.htt these files lock the folder and hinder copy of files in them :x What can I do ?


  • Mounting /media/sda1 failed.

    $LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 1)
    Failed to mount '/dev/disk/by-uuid/C4445B1A445B0F14': Operation not supported
    Mount is denied because NTFS logfile is unclean. Choose one action:
    Boot Windows and shutdown it cleanly, or if you have a removable
    device then click the 'Safely Remove Hardware' icon in the Windows
    taskbar notification area before disconnecting it.
    Or
    Run ntfsfix version 1.13.1 on Linux unless you have Vista.
    Or
    Mount the NTFS volume with the 'ro' option in read-only mode.
    Got this error ,,, with NTFS config.. even replace ntfs with ntfs-3g in fstab doesn't work :x My hadd are not mounted but yes this do job in Fat32 :)


  • Any s/w for Linux to backup/retrieve data from fat32 :?
    Not that I know of


  • @shashwat:first find ur ntfs partition via "sudo fdisk -l".then if u have ntfsprogs ,try "ntfsfix /dev/xxx" and boot to windows and windows will fix via chkdisk ur ntfs errors.(seems u have)
    reg /etc/fstab,use /dev/sdax for ur ntfs partition instead of UUID.or if u want UUID to be entered,use "sudo blkid" or "vol_id" command to get uuid's corresponding to the partition and edit /etc/fstab accordingly.


  • Hello,

    Here is a powerful utility name Stellar Phoenix data recovery (http://www.stellarinfo.com) software which can recover your data from damaged disk, USB, hard drive due to accidental deletion and physical damage.


  • Hey that did not worked : I still cannot del. desktop.ini and others :x

    Also which is the latest repo. of Compiz Fuison... Amarnath seems not to work here :


  • Any s/w for Linux to backup/retrieve data from fat32 :?

    I found one Test Disk (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk) using the following search string in Google

    data recovery software open source

    Its from the software list in the second result (http://www.freebyte.com/filediskutils/)
    Lots of nice software there


  • I did not have windows dude :) else ya I have also done this reboot fix thing 1 time : But I did not have Windows installation


  • @shashwath:did u right click on the folder/file and tried "open as administrator"
    with nautilus or in Desktop.btwn i am on debian.must be there in ubuntu too.

    Bumpity bump :p


  • unmount /dev/sda3 dude! and again run ntfsfix
    then run ur windows twice to fix any write/corrupt errors.
    then check ur ubuntu for ntfs partns mounted.
