No option to pick "Free" or "Whole"

#1 Post by ben8399 »

After I select my partition at the start of photorec dialog, which is an ext4 file system, it then goes straight to destination selection; I have no option to select Free or Whole, so it just ends up recovering from Whole partition instead.

My partition is unmounted as I'm doing this.

Anyone know the issue?
