Short: Search lost PFS/SFS partitions on a harddisk

Version: 1.5
Type: disk/salv
Kurz: PFS/SFS Partitionen auf einer Festplatte suchen
Use RDBrecov if you lost the RDB (partitioning information) of your
harddisk.
RDBrecov searches an entire harddisk for partitions. It can handle PFS2,
PFS3, AFS and SFS partitions.
Since V0.6 it also finds FFS partitions. As FFS needs the partition size
for calculating the rootblock position, first all possible FFS bootblocks
are stored in a table and in a second pass the rootblock positions are
calculated and checked. FFS handling can be switched off by an option.
RDBrecov lists the partitions found into the Shell window and optionaly
into a log file. With this information you can use HDtoolbox (or another
partitioning tool) to reconstruct your partitions.
Harddisks larger than 4GB can be accessed, if the device driver is
either NSD or TD64 compatible. SCSI-Direct is not supported.
AmigaGuide with German and English instructions included.
WARNING: This program was only tested on my machine with my
harddisks. There is no guarantee that it runs on
others. I am not responsible for any damage.
Use it on your own risk.
New in V1.3
- Partition data can now be stored in a mountlist for immediate use.
New in V1.4
- New parameter DEEPFFS for finding more FFS partitions.
New in V1.5
- improved DEEPFFS processing. Produced lots of false partitions before.
