found partition using table type "none" but can't write

Hello.

I am trying to recover a corrupted external hard drive. I have booted testdisk from CD, and setting the partition table type to "none", I am able to see my files. However, the software says that I can't write the partition table when the type is set to "none."

Any idea on what to do ...
