Cgrenier, I am not trying to be rude, I wouldn't even think of coming in here while being rude to you in your own forum. I have more respect than that. If you have some spare time in answering my questions in my above post, it would be very much appreciated. I am sure there are ...

Sorry but as you don't have a header-backup, all data is permanently lost.


Then what exactly is the point of Testdisk saying it "FOUND" the partition? How come it didn't write the old header to the disk? Isnt that what it's supposed to do after finding the partition? How much is supposed to be ...

There was no partition table.

LUKS header: If the header of a LUKS volume gets damaged, all data is permanently lost unless you have a header-backup. If a key-slot is damaged, it can only be restored from a
header-backup or if another active key-slot with known passphrase is undamaged.

So do you ...

@recuperation: How bout' I verify something about you and your little reply instead?

What I can get is a header backup from a different drive that used the same command to create it's encryption, same passphrase, and same keyfile. Would that possibly work if I wrote the first 512 sectors from it? Or possibly first 2048? In that case, I could just create a quick one with the same ...

Hi there, thank you. No sir, I absolutely do not have a header backup file of this drive before that dreadful "Initialize Disk" button was clicked. I can create a header backup from other drives that were created the same time and same way, and that use the same passphrase and keyfile as the drive ...
