How_to_open_hdd_file_system_without_C.A.In.E._(4.0)

[reg1ster]

Hello. I’m using your distribution disk like live CD a long time ago, but one day I used last version of C.A.In.E. (4.0) when making bit-to-bit copy of hard disk driver with «Agestar SUBT» (USB 2.0 to 2.5&3.5 SATA HDD Docking station) to another HDD and when I finished and tried to analysis of the boot sector and the partition table of the HDD image by «Tableau T35is» using «AccessData FTK Imager v.3.1.3.2» at first time I shoved off with one big problem: operation system (Microsoft Windows 7 SP1) gave me information that there is no partitions; «AccessData FTK Imager» gave me information that there is NTFS file system and zero data about image file or other files which I downloaded. I starting recover data from HDD with «R-Studio», «UFS Explorer» and after all «PC-3000 Data Extractor». Result – zero. But when I reconstruct conditions like when I made bit-to-bit copy HDD I saw with C.A.In.E. OS all my files. In fact only with C.A.In.E. I can see and manage all file in this HDD. In fact this is the first time when I saw this problem.

How can it be?

p.s. R.I.P. Linux v.13.7, Ubuntu v.12.04, Slackware v.14.0 and "WinHex v.16.8" didn’t give me any good results.

I don't understand what is the issue....
You did a bit to bit hd copy using Guymager in Caine? Or did you use dd, dc3dd or AIR?
Did you chose /dev/sdX and not /dev/sdX1 or something like I hope...because the number sdX1 is the partition and not the whole disk.

I did bit-to-bit copy of hdd using dd and dc3dd. I didn't mount source hdd and mounted only receiver hdd in r/w mode in /mnt/sdb1 directory. I did it all at safe graphical mode. I didn't use full size graphical mode with friendly user interface.
p.s. dc3dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/sdb1/macbook3.dd

Ok the procedure is correct...so Caine is great! :-D It was the only one to mount your image...
bye

Yes, it is. It was only one hdd which was mounted.
In fact no one can't tell me what happened. Starting Dolphin Data lab (http://www.datarecoverytools4u.com/) and ending AceLab (http://acelab.ru/). Result from grep is zero. I can't believe in this magic.
