I realize that the install fest is for installing software, but given the high concentration of brilliant minds I thought I would ask for some OT help. My hard drive crashed and I had to install a new one (with Debian). I would like to get some help to see if any of the data can be recovered from the crashed drive. I am not an expert in data recovery, and the data is not worth the thousands of dollars that companies charge to recover it. However, if someone is willing to invest a little time to show me some tools or techniques for at least determining if the problem is either a dead drive or just a corrupt boot sector, I would greatly appreciate it. Please let me know if someone will be there who may be able to help. Thanks!
