I had a serious mishap after doing grub-install /dev/sda1. I thought I’d have to start from scratch. I’ve been using Testdisk to salvage a few things, but I never knew about what you wrote about…

Thanks a lot! You really saved me.

Thanks, Ryan — after installing a new SSD disk and some adventures in GRUB I managed to render my NTFS partition unmountable, probably by running “grub-install /dev/sda1″ rather than /dev/sda.

Using testdisk as described above helped.

fixed my problem of “Unexpected clusters per mft record (-127)” when i was trying to mount my vista under linux. I had previously messed up the partitioning with bootitNG. Thanks.

Unbelievable!
I’ve been messing around with testdisk for hours and finally decided to format the partition then I’ve stumbled on your post and you pointed out the right direction !
and now I’m able to get the recovery consul thanks to you.
