Re: [PLUG] Recovering data from damaged CDs
|
Have you tried polishing ? or one of the kits ?

This appears to be just a polishing machine. If you polish manually
make sure you
use mainly axial strokes not circumferential.

I have a few CD-RW discs with large multimedia files that have damaged

konqueror refuses to move, etc. Is there anyway to recover at least some
of these files. The only thing Google found me was LDE, a binary disc
editor.
Any suggestions?
Any chance they have more then one session? For example, a past session that
is otherwise not assessable using the standard mount options for CDs. Have you
tried manually mounting the CDs using the 'cdfs' driver? Instead of the usual
-t iso9660, specify -t cdfs when you mount the CD, then look in /proc to see
how many sessions there are. You can mount each session found on the CD using
the loopback device similar to an ISO image.
