Under linux is a program called testdisk that will do that. I have used it with CD based linux boot disks and rebuild disks that would cause my windows machine to reboot when connected.I am currently working with a customer who needs to recover data from an external USB hard drive which has had it's only partition (NTFS) deleted. Obviously Windows won't recognise the drive any more so I would like to know if anyone has any neat tricks or tips to access the drive and rebuild the partition without using commercial software, and preferrably via USB so I don't have to rip the drive out of it's casing.Many thanks Richard
