Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3054293 By: gkmohan Hi szaka, If I wait long enough (~5 min) the system seem to recover from reading all the bad sectors (this kernel does not seem to dump the I/O error messages) and ntfsclone seem to finish its job. But I have a problem again. When I tried to make an exact copy of the partition using ntfsclone --rescue -o /mnt/freestore/winxp.img /dev/hda3 I get an image with a size lesser than that of the partition. To check that everything went right I mounted the image file as a loopback device mount /mnt/freestore/winxp.img /mnt/loop -t ntfs -o loop=/dev/loop0 and then did a diff with the mounted ntfs partition diff -r /mnt/loop /mnt/windows which reveals that I cannot access /mnt/loop/WINDOWS directory. I get an I/O error when I try to access this directory. Do you have any idea of what could have gone wrong? I also have another question. What happens to the bad sectors portion of the data when the image used for restore? cheers, Krishna. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
