Hello! I am new toKnoppix, I am using it to recover my data since Win Xp Pro doesn't boot anymore.
I've got 2 hard drives (with raid) and two partitions made with BootMagic. One of them will not boot with Windows, the other does but it's useless since it doesn't see the first one in any way.
My problem is that Knoppix will not see my hard drives. I read the other posts and I was suggested to try to mount the hard drives using:
mount -t ntfs /dev/hde1 /mnt/pnt1
where pnt1 is a mount point I created with mkdir mnt/pnt1 and hde1 is one of the partitions, the other is hde2 (I saw them with: cat /proc/partitions)
Unfortunately it doesn't work, the message I get when I try to mount hde1 is:
"mount: wrong type, bad option, bad superblock on dev/hde1, missing codepage or other error"
What does this mean? What should I do to see my hard drive?
This is the very first time I use Knoppix and Linux in general so I'm a bit confused and I don't know what to do!
I have learnt that I must not try to write on the hard drive so I will burn the data on CD once I can mount the hard drive, ca anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance to those who will take the time to read and answer!
