Now I run testdisk and I get this in the first analyze step:
Code: Select all
Partition sector doesn't have the endmark 0xAA55
Code: Select all
Disk /dev/sdf - 15 GB / 14 GiB - CHS 15072 64 32
Partition Start End Size in sectors
> Linux 0 63 31 243 63 30 497664
Linux 1 0 1 15070 63 32 30863360
Structure: Ok. Use Up/Down Arrow keys to select partition.
Use Left/Right Arrow keys to CHANGE partition characteristics:
*=Primary bootable P=Primary L=Logical E=Extended D=Deleted
Keys A: add partition, L: load backup, T: change type, P: list files,
Enter: to continue
ext2 blocksize=1024 Sparse superblock Backup superblock, 254 MB / 243 MiB
Code: Select all
ext4 blocksize=4096 Large file Sparse superblock Backup superblock, 15 GB / 14 G
If I select 0 as primary bootable (I think it is the /boot partition) I cannot make any valid selection for 1 (It does not allow me to chose either Logical or Extended and selecting Primary for that partition is apparently bad?)
On another (Debian) system I have this structure:
Code: Select all
Disk /dev/sda - 1000 GB / 931 GiB - CHS 121602 255 63
