Hi guys,
I'm having a hard time trying to recover a partition from a friend's computer.
What i'm trying to do? recover the partition so i can rescue all the files in there.
My Issues?
- Windows does not start at all.
- When running ubunto from the CD and running this command from the shell i get:
ubunto@ubunto:-$ sudo fdisk -l
