NAME
photorec - Recover lost files from harddisk, digital camera and cdrom SYNOPSIS
photorec [/log] [/debug] [/d recup_dir] [device|image.dd|image.e01] photorec /version DESCRIPTION
PhotoRec is file data recovery software designed to recover lost files including video, documents and archives from Hard Disks and CDRom and lost pictures (Photo Recovery) from digital camera memory. PhotoRec ignores the filesystem and goes after the underlying data, so it'll work even if your media's filesystem is severely damaged or formatted. PhotoRec is safe to use, it will never attempt to write to the drive or memory support you are about to recover lost data from. OPTIONS
/log create a photorec.log file /debug add debug information SEE ALSO
testdisk(8), fdisk(8). AUTHOR

NAME
dares - rescue files from damaged CDs and DVDs SYNOPSIS
dares -i image -s path [-h2i h2i_file] [-a] [-m] [-llogfile] dares-qt [-i image] [-s path] [-h2i h2i_file] [-a] [-m] [-llogfile] DESCRIPTION
Dares scans a CD/DVD image or a CD/DVD and tries to find files. It does not depend on filesystem information, but instead uses the Magic library to identify files. Doing it this way Dares can recover files even when the filesystem (ISO-9660 or UDF) on the disc is damaged and cannot be mounted anymore. Dares can use H2cdimage (ftp://ftp.heise.de/pub/ct/ctsi/h2cdimage.zip) files to rescue data from heavily damaged optical discs. OPTIONS
-i CD/DVD image file or device. -s Directory where the rescued files shall be stored. -h2i Optional h2i file for the CD/DVD image. -a Store all found files without any user interaction. -m Use Mime types instead of a description. -l Logfile (default: dares.log) AUTHOR
