RockDawg Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I'm trying to mount a drive from a Windows 7 system that died so I can recover some files. I followed each step in the wiki and something indeed was mounted to /mnt/old_data, but the contents are not all correct. After installing the drive it was assigned slot "sdc" so I used the following command: mount -r -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /mnt/old_data -o umask=111,dmask=000 -v My problem is that the contents that show up are: root@Tower1:~# cd /mnt/old_data root@Tower1:/mnt/old_data# dir BOOTSECT.BAK Boot/ System\ Volume\ Information/ bootmgr root@Tower1:/mnt/old_data# cd /mnt/old_data/Boot root@Tower1:/mnt/old_data/Boot# dir BCD BCD.LOG1 BOOTSTAT.DAT cs-CZ/ de-DE/ en-US/ fi-FI/ hu-HU/ ja-JP/ memtest.exe nl-NL/ pt-BR/ ru-RU/ tr-TR/ zh-HK/ BCD.LOG BCD.LOG2 Fonts/ da-DK/ el-GR/ es-ES/ fr-FR/ it-IT/ ko-KR/ nb-NO/ pl-PL/ pt-PT/ sv-SE/ zh-CN/ zh-TW/ Anybody have any idea what's up? I see some Windows stuff, but I never had memtest on there. That looks unRaid related. Maybe the drive got trashed when the computer died? It just doesn't seem right. Liek the wiki instructed I never assigned the drive to my array. I only stopped the array so I could see the drop down box on the Devices screen to see which slot it was assigned and then I restarted the array. Quote Link to comment
Spectrum Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 That looks like the info from a separate boot partition. Try mounting /dev/sdc2 Quote Link to comment
