#1 Post by input »

Hello,

<After some years I like to want repair my extern harddisk 500GB.
<Testdisk only can anylise my harddrive.With fdisk -l I see nothing.
<Now I want to add cylinder, head and type volume to try this.
<But I can't find a manual about how to set cylinder and head functions.
<The blocksize from /dev/dm-0 is 4096 and it has 263 GB.

<I hope somone can help me further.

<Thanks

Oh, I am sorry I was wrong about the harddisk I compare dev/sda and /dev/dm-0 are the same drive so my intern drive.
