Mac OS broken partition table in APFS with password
Posted: 23 Sep 2019, 18:52
Hello Mr Grenier,
thank you for your wonderful applications. I have a MacBook Pro with a Samsung SSD of 501 GB. The drive crushed. The files should be there since PhotoRec found many files but without their names. Also the Drive is APFS with password.
I run TestDisk and I got the following:
I want to ask you the following:
1)why there is a Linux partition though I did not have any Linux installed?
2)The first Mac HFS partition has a 67108864 blocksize and the 3rd Mac HFS partition is 512 size? What is the problem here?
I want to rebuild the partition table with gpt but when I put the numbers it does not mount..
Thank you in advance
