TestDisk "file copy" takes forever!

I have been able to recover my EXT4 partition and create an image.dd file earlier for that partition. However, when I try to copy files from the image file to another disk/partition, copy never stops and the data written to the destination disk has reached 50 GB, while the original size of my ...

Testdisk has found the partition, but I can't see the files...

Hello guys!

Well, I spent the whole past week trying to recover my data after a crash caused by that infamous Wintoflash tool while I was trying to create a bootable USB. My hard drive is a Fujitsu 2.5" SATA 250 GB. I had more than 6 NTFS partitions and one EXT4 partition for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ...
