P.s. Anyone know how to get a hold of this person: http://askubuntu.com/questions/239967/a ... br-to-guid ?

I keep coming back to this, and now that I have made a DD image and physically disconnected the drive, I wiped the partition table, and did a full scan with the detected settings (log attached)

There were a few partitions that came up with "Publicly_Shared" which is the partition name that I want ...

I spoke of 200 in my last post, but now I think there were more than 400. Also after some time I tended to press "q" to early and had to redo the deep scan.

Though your issue is resolved, and this is just for curiosity's sake;

When scanning my own large drive, tonnes of partitions showed up, and ...

When attempting to recover partitions from a drive, if a DD image is made of the whole drive, do we need the physical drive?


Same question goes for file recovery: If we have a DD image of the whole drive, is there any benefit to keeping the physical drive intact?



Thanks

Here are the logs so far.

Before I knew that "Create new log" simply erased the old one, I did have a scan that showed a Linux partition, but it was unrecoverable (probably because the sectors were set to 512). I'm unsure what setup got me there, but I have not seen it since.

I'm transitioning from an Ubuntu fileserver to OSX, and I backed up almost everything before what I'm about to tell you, the only thing that I didn't back up yet was the family pictures.

It completely slipped my mind after hours and hours of transferring completed, and I fired up disk utility ...
