RIPLinux: Data Recovery and Partitioning Tool
|
|
Just ran across this yesterday. It is the fastest live cd I've run across and has a huge selection of data recovery and partitioning tools along with memtest and a browser so that you can do research while booted into the live cd.

There are also versions of this tool that you can use with usb drives, pens, memory sticks, etc... as it is only 75 mB's.
RIPLinux has the ability to work with any linux file system you can name and with NTFS. You can resize, move, and format partitions, undelete deleted files, read and write to ADS, and a whole lot more on NTFS. And, you can do pretty much all of that with any Linux partition too.
This is a great tool. The more I use it the more I am impressed with it. So far just playing around with it I've successfully shrunk an NTFS partition from 9 gigs to 750 megs with no corruption of data, and deleted, created and formatted NTFS partitions. And, I've only scratched the surface of this tool's capabilities.
This is a tool that deserves to be in every tech's toolbox. The developer has done a great job with it. Full Story |
