I have a stripped volume consisting of 2 disks. It was created with Disk Utility in Tiger.
While doing some work in Disk Utility I mistakenly deleted the RAID set. Ouch!
The partitions on both disks remain and have not been touched.I need a way to rebuild, repair, reconstruct, or otherwise bring back to life this volume. I am sure the data is still all there. If only the partition map could be repaired?
Any help would be appreciated. Recovery Service recommendations are also welcome. Smart remarks about backing up your data are not welcome. Constructive tips,info, etc only please!
Thanks
JoshThanks Yo!
Boned is indeed what I am. Or out $1200 to the guy that tells me it’s no problem with their proprietary custom built superific recovery software… 😀
In regard to Data Rescue. I did a scan with it on one of the partitions and it did indeed to claim to have found files to recover. I cancelled the scan after about five minutes and didn’t choose to recover anything for fear of it doing damage as a lot of those tools do.
On a related note: Does anyone know of a good byte copier? I would like to backup the broken partitions to another disk so I can mess with them. I don’t know of anything that will do what I need. The Partitions are unmountable (obviously) and grey out in Disk Utility giving me no options to work with them there. I thought a Restore might do the trick but it doesn’t allow me that freedom. I also tried dd from the command line, no luck.
A disk copier with a byte by byte option is what I need. Any ideas?
