I have another disk currently free in case it is a possibility to somehow rebuild the raid.
Is there a simple way to mount the Linux 83 file type disk and recover the data?.
Is there a way to convert the disk to ext4 without damaging the data?.
$sudo file -s /dev/sdc /dev/sdc: x86 boot sector partition 1: ID=0x83, starthead 254, startsector 63, 1953520002 sectors, code offset 0xb8 I have tried to find the file system type of the disk and have come up with
Wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock onĮXT4-fs (sdc1): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem Upon mounting the following error appears
I added an entry to fstab, marked the disk as ext3/ext4 and tried to mount.
The other disk in the original raid 1 was formatted and used for another purpose, leaving the current disk (the one in question) still technically part of a raid that no longer exists.
Partition find and mount software software#
The disk was part of a software raid 1 on Ubuntu 12.04.
The disk itself was "worked on" by a friend and is said to be still intact, undamaged and still mountable/recoverable.
