Magic Rescue scans a block device for
file types it knows how to recover and
calls an external program to extract
them. It looks at "magic bytes" in file
contents, so it can be used both as an
undelete utility and for recovering a
corrupted drive or partition. It works
on any file system, but on very
fragmented file systems it can only
recover the first chunk of each file.
These chunks are sometimes as big as
50MB, however.
