Data Recovery Tools
Data Recovery Tools: "Data Recovery Tools Homepage

Project summary
Features and limitations
dr-tools
There is only dr-fat in that package at this time.

* Recovers data from damaged FAT filesystems.
* Recovers tree structure with names.
* Guesses which files are clean and which are damaged.
* There is a patch below to support dd_rescue bad blocks list.
* Does only support FAT32 at this time.
* Doesn't support damages to system zone and/or file allocation table yet.
* Doesn't support in-place recovery.

dr-ext2

* Recovers files big enough to need indirect blocks from a mistakenly formatted ext2/ext3 filesystem.
* Should work to recover erased files, too, but all files with indirect blocks will be 'recovered', even if you already have access to them.
* Written in one week-end, do not expect too much ;)

jpeg-recover

* JPEG parser to find JPEG streams in a flow of data.
* Proved to be useful to recover still pictures of a digital camera.
* Originally developped to get JPEGs from an archive of an unknown type."
