Hi, 

 

 I'm trying to recover data from a corrupted Win Fat32 file system using
Fedora, with a command "mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /mnt", but the operation
fails. I'm pretty sure it is a fat32 file system because "fdisk" proves
a very honest gentleman :-), Now the problem is, How to recover data
from a corrupted fat32 file system?  I run a "hdparm" on the hard disk
to scan bad blocks and proves that the hard disk is error-free.

 

 Any suggestions/ideas are greatly appreciated. 

 

 

 Thanks.
