  DFSDISK introduction
  Examples of DFSDISK usage

     0) Template and general description
     1) Thinkpad damaged by VCU using wrong drivers (geometry)
     2) eCS system trashed by Windows-98 FDISK while removing a partition
     3) Mixed OS/2, Windows and Linux system trashed by Linux Disk-Druid
     4) 2nd disk in Windows system trashed by FDISK (made one FAT32 out of it)
     5) Multi-boot system lost all partition on FDISK crash, disk seems empty

     Note: The DFSDISK procedure was known as 'DFSUNFD' upto version 6.04

DFS-UNFDISK is the name of a DFSee method to UNDO damage done to partition
table information by FDISK, Partition-Magic, VCU.EXE, viruses and most
important by mistakes you make in using these or similar tools.

It is NOT a fully automated procedure where you can just call a magic
program and all will be well (or not). Instead, the DFSDISK script is
an information collecting procedure that creates a large logfile that
can be analysed to find the missing partition(s) and if possible
define a recovery script with some DFSee commands to recover them.
The DFSDISK script and the RECOVERY script together implement the
complete DFS-UNFDISK procedure (Each RECOVER script is unique!).

Recovery usually involves a few CREATE commands, and sometimes a NEWMBR,
STARTABLE, SETBOOT, LVMSET or FIXBOOT as well.

Some example recovery scripts are in the standards distribution as
'REC*.DFS, and can be used as a starting point for your own ...


All of this means it is not very useful unless you have the knowledge
to make that analysis, know someone who does, or are able to learn ...


Knowledgable people including myself are to be found on the DFSee support
group at Yahoo:

        http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dfsee-support/


and of course you can always call on my help directly using:

        support@dfsee.com

Note that for real support like this, a registration is required!


This document is aimed at those people that would like to learn how to
use the DFSDISK script to perform these recoveries.

Some real life scenarios are shown in the items below.
Each is described with some text, and the relevant parts of
the DFSDISK?.LOG file are included.

The DFSee scenario to recover one or more partitions is given,
and in some cases the resulting logfile from the recovery too.

The first item, (00) serves as a template and a short description
of the analysis considerations and techniques.

    DFSDISKI.SK? logfile extract:
    -----------------------------

    Most important info here: the output from the 'bsfind' command

    The stuff below that is for double checking and further identification.

    <insert DFSDISKI.SK? parts here>


    ========= End     output (edited logfile) for this DFSDISK? =============


    Analysis:
    ---------

    Based on knowledge about what the disk used to contain, and what must
    be recovered, carefully study the lists resulting from the 'bsfind'
    and the related 'list -b'.

    If the 'bsfind' has failed to find anything, there is still some detailed
    info for some 'well-known' sectors which could be enough for recovery.
    A second 'all sectors' scan for the start of the disk is included near
    the end of the logfile, this can be useful to check if the analysis
    should be rerun with a different geometry to find more information.
    As a last resort, you can run the DFSDISK script again with the 'ALL'
    option to perform a more thorough but time consuming search.

    After a brief look at the displayed partitions in the table (if any :-)
    the next step is a close examination of the bsfind output.
    I usually go back and forth between the 'bsfind' result list and
    the corresponding detailed information below it in the logfile.
    It is very helpful if you can use a good editor with search facilities
    like 'search word under cursor'. Use that to find unique sector numbers.

    When the partitioning for a disk is very 'clean' and no other older
    partitions exist on the disk, the bsfind results will be a good
    representation for the partitions that are present, including the
    right sizes as displayed on the left side.

    In real life, there are often remains of previous or moved partitions,
    so the size info is less useful without doing some calculations too.

    A good strategy is looking for combinations of a few sector hits that
    are on the same cylinder, like EBR, LVM-info and Boot sector.

    On LVM systems, the LVM-info is often the best lead, because that
    contains useful names, starting positions and size information.

    The list is likely to contain confusing information besides the stuff
    you are looking for, due to old partition sectors still being around.
    Use the displayed sector numbers to find the detailed information further
    below in the 'list -b' to identify the things you are looking for.

    Also look closely at the reported sizes, not only for identification,
    but also to check that partitions do not overlap.


    Recovery scenario:
    ------------------

    One point to consider here is that while using a CREATE command and
    specifying the size in megabytes, this value might be rounded UP
    slightly by DFSee to align on cylinder boundaries.
    To compensate for that it is wise to subtract 1 MiB  from the sizes
    reported because those might have been rounded up already.

    DFSOS2.EXE -log:recover
      newmbr 1
      cr  pri  bmgr  1
      cr  pri  fat   1000
      cr  log  hpfs  600
      cr  log  hpfs  2400
      q

 1) Thinkpad damaged by VCU using wrong drivers (geometry)

    Description:
    ------------

    This is a Thinkpad that contained a small primary HPFS for booting, and
    a larger HPFS on the rest of the disk for programs and data. Booting that
    using one of the eComStation installation CDs with old disk drivers on
    them caused the VCU utility to run and damage the partition.
    The logical partition was gone after a reboot ...

    ========= End     output (edited logfile) for this DFSDISK? =============


    Analysis:
    ---------

    This is one of the simplest recoveries you are likely to encounter.
    From the description and the currently displayed partition table,
    you could already guess that a simple:

        CR  log  hpfs

    will most likely bring back the missing logical HPFS.

    However, to make sure we don't make a mistake, double check the logfile!

    From the 'list -s' output we see that the first partition ends after 509
    megabyte, and that there is LVM-info and a bootsector there but NO EBR!

    Checking on the LVM-info we see it is incomplete (lists no partition).
    I assume this is the point where VCU.EXE failed after creating this.

    The bootsector looks good, it is for a 5679 HPFS partition.

    The EBR sector listed at cylinder 447 must be an old one, it is in the
    middle of our HPFS partition. Also the two sizes listed in the left-hand
    column of 'list -s' nicely add up to our 5679 MB


    Recovery scenario:
    ------------------

    Specifying all parameters to 'CR' just makes it a bit safer, just the
    'cr log hpfs' would be enough here but I tend to include the disk-number
    and starting cylinder because on more complex recoveries that will
    cause typing errors and other mistakes to be caught ...


    DFSOS2.EXE  -log:wayne02
      cr  log  hpfs  5679  -disk:1  -at:65,c
      q


    This does not complete the recovery yet, because the LVM-info for this
    partition was trashed by VCU. To recover from that we need to use the
    standard LVM program and create the volume again:


    Define a volume (name and drive-letter) for this partition, so the LVM-
    enabled eCS will see it too. To do that, start LVM.EXE, and create a new
    volume. The trick here is to select "use an existing partition" in the
    procedure, not "from freespace". The partition will probably have an
    artificial name like [A1] or so, but it can easily be recognized since
    it is the only "available" one and has the right size.


    Note: The later versions of DFSee can do that too, just use the "LVM"
          command interactively, or specify the LVM information on the
          "cr" command. (as shown in sample (3) too)

 2) eCS system trashed by Windows-98 FDISK while removing a partition

    Description:
    ------------

    This was a functioning eComStation system that had multiple partitions
    and also a bootable Win-98. On trying to create a 10GiB FAT32 partition
    at some stage the Win-98 FDISK was used that eventually wiped out all
    the logical partitions.  Most important things missing are a 10 GiB JFS
    and two 5 GiB HPFS partitions.

    Most important info here: the output from the bsfind or list -s

    All the stuff below that (even more than included here) is just for
    double checking and further identification.

    Analysis:
    ---------

     Knowing that we are looking for a 10GiB JFS and two 5GiB HPFS, the size info

 3) Mixed OS/2, Windows and Linux system trashed by Linux Disk-Druid

    Description:
    ------------

    This is about a system where Linux Disk-Druid was used to create a
    new logical partition in some freespace in the middle of the disk.

    It managed to rewrite the chain of logical partitions in a non-sorted
    ordering (OK for Linux but a disaster for DOS, OS/2 and Windows).

    It also destroyed the LVM-information on five of the logical partitions
    because the EBR sectors with partition tables were not placed at their
    standard sector (1st in track) but on the last one, where LVM lives ...


    DFSDISKI.SK? logfile extract:
    -----------------------------

    Note: In this case the output for the 'bsfind' command is not very useful.

    The display tables below show that there are warnings about some logicals
    that are not aligned properly, this also results in some very small areas
    of freespace as shown in the second (numeric) table.

Note: The line above is a very strong indication that Linux created
      an illegal ordering in the logical chain.
      It can also be seen in the output of the "walk" command, later on.

The illegal order in the logical-chain can be seen very well in the
fragment of the "walk" command output as shown below (edited):


DFSee Dos version : 5.17 executing: walk 1

Shown sector  LSN : 013DB14E = Extended Boot Rec  C: 1296 H:  0 S:63 = 013DB14E

When looking at cylinder values of each "Shown sector " line, you can clearly
see that the last partition on the disk links back to two others that are in
the middle of the disk.

Also, when looking at one of the EBR sector CHS values, it is clear that for
five of them the EBR is located at a nonstandard sector (63 instead of 1):

The EBR sectors should have been at CHS xxx,0,1 instead of xxx,0,63


    ========= End     output (edited logfile) for this DFSDISK? =============


    Analysis:
    ---------

    The problems here are with the extended-partition chain which is not
    built in a standard way. The EBRs are at the wrong track positions
    and there is a backward-link.

    At the moment there is no DFSee command that will correct the chain
    in one go, a specific "FIXCHAIN" command is under consideration.

    So the only, and still 'simple' way to correct the problems is to
    delete the incorrect extended partitions, and recreate them in the
    same place, same size and same type. DFSee will take care of the
    right order and correct placement of the EBR sectors.



    Recovery scenario:
    ------------------

    Note: this scenario uses a new feature introduced in version 5.18
          to address partitions using a RELATIVE partition ID.
          This is extrememly useful to make the script independent from
          the number of disks, and allows easy testing on a virtual disk.
          The script is delivered as a sample with DFSee as "recover2.dfs"

    The script starts with making a backup of the current disk using PSAVE
    and then deletes the five incorrect logicals. After this they are all
    recreated with the right size, type and so on ...

    Because the order of some partitions changes, the script ends with a
    confirmation pop-up warning to the user to update the related Linux
    files like "fstab" and Grub/Lilo.

;Recovery script sample, delete a few and recreate some partitions on disk 1
;
;To recover real disk with (many) confirmations : DFSxxx.EXE    run recovery
;To recover real disk, no questions asked at all: DFSxxx.EXE -b run recovery
;
;To test on a virtual: DFSxxx.EXE run recovery virt dfstart.pd1 import dfsdiski.sn1

 4) 2nd disk in Windows system trashed by FDISK (made one FAT32 out of it)

    Description:
    ------------

    This was a 2-disk Windows system, where during the install of a new
    Windows on the first disk, the second disk was converted to a single
    FAT32 primary partition by mistake.


    DFSDISKI.SK? logfile extract:
    -----------------------------

    Knowing the history, and expecting a single NTFS partition to have
    been on that disk, the first thing to look for is the spare bootsector
    that would be at the end of any NTFS partition.

    From the size in cylinders, and the end-cylinder value, we can conclude that
    this was a primary NTFS starting at cylinder 0.

    ========= End     output (edited logfile) for this DFSDISK? =============


    Analysis:
    ---------

    The whole disk is a primary FAT32 now of 38246 MB.

    From the bsfind and spare boot sector display we can see that the NTFS
    partition that used to be there was a bit smaller (38139 MB) and was
    either a logical or a primary starting in cylinder 0.
    This is because the number of cylinders is NOT a round number.
    Calculating from the end-cylinder and size it is clear it must be a
    primary starting at cylinder 0. This means there will be 1 cylinder
    of freespace after this partition. (not uncommon)

    It is also clear that the initial boot sector for the NTFS partition
    has been cleared by the FDISK operation, so that needs to be recovered
    as well.

    The recovery will be:

    - delete FAT32
    - create NTFS with right size
    - fix the bootsector


    Recovery scenario:
    ------------------

    DFSWIN.EXE  -log:fixbernie
       delete  2  2                   ;delete partition 2 (on disk 2)
       cr  pri  ntfs  38138  -disk:2  ;create new NTFS of right size
       part  2                        ;select the just created
       fs  ntfs                       ;force DFSee NTFS mode
       fixboot                        ;rebuild the bootsector from spare
       part  -r                       ;show result
       q                              ;quit DFSee

 5) Multi-boot system lost all partitions on FDISK crash, disk seems empty

    Description:
    ------------

    This was an 80 GiB disk with Windows-XP resized to allow addition of an
    eComStation partition and some smaller data partitions.
    On one FDISK operation, just to look at the disk, something weird
    happened and the disk seemed to be empty afterwards (freespace).


    The original contents of the disk were roughly described in the email:

    +++++++++ start help email

    I have been careless and lost all partition data on the HD
    of one of my PCs (using FDISK, and I don't know what command
    did the damage since I was only looking).

    Anyway, now LVM reports no partition at all (i.e one giant
    free space), so that gave me a real good reason to register
    your tool and start playing with it.

    I have attached a zip file of the output of the dfsdisk command.

    Originally purchased with just XP Family installed, I used
    BootIt! to repartition it for other OS.

    As far as I remember, the 80GiB disk was organized as follows
    when the problem occurred (in ascending order, all sizes
    approximated):

    1) a Hidden 3GiB recovery primary partition used to restore
    the disk to factory status, possible FAT32 (not sure)

    2) a 65GiB NTFS XP primary partition

    3) a 7MB Boot Manager primary partition

    4) Remaining space as an extended partition consisting of:

    5) a 2.5 GiB HPFS eCS 1.1 partition

    6) a 7MB FAT partition I intended to try to install DrDOS to
    (but failed, obviously)

    7) Free space for the remainder

    +++++++++ end email

    So from this, we know to look for about 7 partitions in the bsfind ...

    Analysis:
    ---------

    The disk is empty, as the MBR contains just garbage.

    From the bsfind we see that most of the partitions that should be there
    seem to be present, but there also seems to be another, 5004.6 MB  one.
    Note there is an OLD boot sector for a primary FAT32 labeled BOOTITXX
    of 4997 MB, this was a primary at the same spot where the 5004 logical
    now resides. It can sometimes be puzzling to find out which are the most
    current ones, and which are obsolete ...

    The recovery will be:

    - Create a new empty (but valid) MBR sector
    - create each partition in turn
    - set the IBM BootManager startable


    Recovery scenario:
