Hi All,
A colleague used a USB stick on his home machine and when he brought it to
work he can no longer access it using WinXP. I offered to help with my
Gentoo laptop (as one ought to rise to the challenge!) but it seems that
Linux is also struggling to get to it:
==========================================
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

invalid.
NTFS-fs error (device sda): read_ntfs_boot_sector(): Mount option

NTFS-fs error (device sda): ntfs_fill_super(): Not an NTFS volume.
hfs: can't find a HFS filesystem on dev sda.
VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sda.
VFS: Can't find an ext2 filesystem on dev sda.
ReiserFS: sda: warning: sh-2021: reiserfs_fill_super: can not find reiserfs on
sda
==========================================
I tried to dd the boot sector so that I can look at it on my hard drive, but
it cannot access /dev/sda. Is there anything that I can do with my Gentoo to
recover the files on this USB?
